A BRIGHTER PAST. A DARKER FUTURE.

The year is 2035. It's been twenty years since World War Three wiped out humankind. The only survivors were those who made it through the gates of the Metro, the subway system of Moscow city. It's there, hundreds of feet below the ground, that they try to outlive the end of the days. But the Metro's citizens, torn apart by religions and ideologies, are fighting for the now scarce commodities: air, water and space.

Artyom is no stranger to the Metro. Driven by a desire to lead his people out from the depths and into the light, he relentlessly searches for signs of life on the surface. And he will stop at nothing to be the saviour that humanity needs...

Metro 2035 by Dmitry Glukhovsky is the final thrilling book in the Metro trilogy, a series that inspired the bestselling computer games Metro 2033, Metro: Last Light and Metro: Exodus.
