The writer of the Metro novels and video games has been handed an eight-year prison sentence, for his opposition to the Ukraine war.
Great books by the way!
2033, yes.
2034 felt disjointed to a point I wasn’t even sure it was written by the same person. Gave up reading eventually, about 1/3 in.
I had the exact same experience. I love 2033, but I couldn’t finish 2034.
The brain drain and pointless bloody war will continue until morale improves.
Or the nation fucking implodes into a power vacuum 🤷♂️
I wonder what the world will do if that happens again. UN peacekeepers to oversee elections?
Whatever form Russia takes next should not have a seat on the security council.
UN peace keepers are only gonna be an option if they don’t do “Fall of the Union 2: putins boogaloo” and go full civil war
I’m sure he wasn’t planning on returning anyway.
Glad he’s okay and not in Russia anymore. Makes playing his games a lot more enjoyable.
He’s a great storyteller
