reviewed Metro 2033 by Dmitry Glukhovsky (Seria Metro, #1)

Dmitry Glukhovsky: Metro 2033 (Paperback, polski language, 2010, Insignis Media) 4 stars

A rare opportunity to deepen my experience within its Lore, one already well-established by the Video Game Series.

3 stars

The novel Metro 2033 follows the journey of Artyom in the perilous underground world of Moscow Metro to save his community. The book is complementary to the video game series with the same name, enriching the post-apocalyptic setting. The narrative is filled with twists and turns, keeping the reader engaged and unable to predict events. The story explores themes of survival, philosophy, and pragmatism in a post-apocalyptic nuclear world. The author, Dmitry Glukhovsky, successfully keeps the momentum going in a thrilling way, with unexpected twists and challenges for the protagonist. The narrative may have some low points with occasional descriptive or convoluted storytelling, but overall succeeds as a distraction and keeps the audience engaged. The book leaves room for further exploration with a next novel called Metro 2034, inviting Readers to continue the journey.
