- Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2019Beautiful book, in Russian and it’s brand new as stated. Can’t wait to read
- Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2013This is a great book even for it being in Russian but I don't mind, I'd recommend it for it being hardcover, the orgin of the book and the author being from Russia
- Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2010word of advice, take a cold hard look at the picture BEFORE you purchase...i cant read Russian XD
- Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2013I LOVE the Metro series and I feel that the U.S./U.K. markets have been neglected. With the recent release of the second videogame and the movie in the works all Metro should be available in English to expand this growing market.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2011Metro 2033 was an excellent post-apocalypse novel - outstanding example of Russian SF, in the tradition of Roadside Picnic etc.
Hopefully this sequel will get translated into English soon - there are Spanish and German translations, but no English.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2011Metro 2033 will be a book I havve repected and this new book is a close second for best books I have ever heard or read
- Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2011I never read fiction books. After a recent trip to Russia, someone recommended the first part (Metro 2033) which I absolutely loved. This book is not as good as the first one, but I felt that I had to read it since the first one was so good.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2014Bought this as a gift, thought it was in english turns out to be in Russian.

5.0 out of 5 stars Toll
natürlich ist jedes Buch Geschmackssache. aber ich habe danach gesucht und wurde nicht enttäuscht. Das Buch an sich ist gebunden und unbeschadet zu mir gekommen.
Die Geschichte dahinter: die Welt nach Atom-Krieg in Metro von Moskau.
