Daily Short Stories from The Penned Sleuth

Metro 2033 by Dmitry Glukhovsky is best described as a surreal, post-apocalyptic adventure, centred around life beneath the ground in the metro tunnels after nuclear weapons devastated the planet with their destructive force and worse still, their lingering radiation. This is not a story of how or why the bombs dropped, but the exploration of one’s will to live in the face of many strange dangers that assault the body, mind and heart of the main character, Artyom. Here is my spoiler-free review of Metro 2033 by Dmitry Glukhovsky. https://www.thepennedsleuth.com/blog/metro-2033-by-dmitry-glukhovsky-book-review
