Metro 2035
Several months ago, Dmitry Glukhovsky's book "Metro 2035" was published as a literary continuation of the Metro: Last Light game. As the author himself said, the plot is tied to Artyom's attempts to prevent a war inside the Moscow metro (shelter after a nuclear explosion in 2013). The author also replied that the book will reflect the Russian political reality.Who has read the book? What are your impressions of her?
I bought the trilogy, but I didn’t master the first part. Knowing the plot of the game is quite difficult to read. Perhaps I will reach Metro 2035 by the end of summer, although ...
The first part has become a cult, the second - prohodnyak, but the third is a really worthy book, which can be put on a par with the "Inhabited Island" by the Strugatskys, for example. Very relevant about today's Russia. Although the book contains unnecessary porn scenes where Glukhovsky is trying to show his "adulthood", without which the book would only get better. But the ending is really unexpected and turns the whole story upside down.

Well, I read this book. Mate on mate and mate drives. A priori, there cannot be a reflection of the current political realities in Serria, because according to the canon, in 2013 there was a worldwide bummer. Although in the flight of refugees from the red line to the Hansa, you can see similarities with the flight of refugees and Africa to Europe. As for me, there are books in the series that are more interesting than the main trilogy.
I bought and read it back in August. Not satisfied with the imposed politot and the foreign number of obscene expressions. Why is it in Metro literature?
Most of all, I did not like the transformation of the universe by the absence of mutants. Moreover, only radiation became a danger. That atmosphere of survival disappears, which one cannot but observe with a tormented soul. I roughly understood the political thought and I know that some Russians share it, but this is not the right place for such a universe. Metro 2035 was supposed to be a series of dizzying adventures, interesting reflections on the consequences of what people have done - the fate of humanity in the womb of the last stronghold of life.
Here this is not the case, the usual demagoguery with the total disfigurement of the characters. I regret the hours spent reading. Perhaps I would like the book if I didn’t know the previous ones.
