Metro 2035 by Dmitry Glukhovsky
5.0
Metro 2035 follows the threads and characters introduced in Metro 2033 and Metro 2034. All the books in the Metro trilogy involve the geography of Moscow, predominantly the metro system. The author has a website http://www.metro2033.com/ with a map of the metro system on it available for free. If you get confused, it helps to access this map.
The books were published in this order:
Metro 2033 2005
Metro 2034 2009
Metro 2035 2015
The politics in this book are fascinating and even timely. The events in Metro 2035 really gave me a better understanding of the Russia of today and the mindset of those who rule her. I cannot say very much without spoilers from the first two books.
Rupert Degas does another excellent job narrating this book. He is fantastic. His accent for the Russian speakers if marvelous. When simply narrating, not the dialogue, he has a very clear voice with an English accent. His female voices are very well done. I only had trouble with one female voice and that is because that character had a lower voice (maybe alto) and I do not have the most discerning ears.
I suggest getting the Metro series as an audiobook because it does make a difference, unless you speak Russian. Having a narrator who pronounces the words that in print defy your comprehension, makes a good book great.
