Book Review: Metro 2033

Metro 2033 gave me a rare opportunity: to deepen my experience within its Lore, one already well-established by the Video Game Series with the same name.

In this Novel we follow Artyom, an unassuming Citizen of the world of Moscow Metro, that embarks on an Odyssey around this perilous underground in order to save his Community. His journey will be filled by twists and turns which leave the Reader in awe and unable to predict a lot of the events building up the narrative.

Book Review: The Three-Body Problem

Being an avid Sy-Fy Reader and having enjoyed long chains of inter-related storylines (such as the Robot, Galactic Empire and Foundation Series of Isaac Asimov and A Time Odyssey Series by Arthur C. Clarke) it all came as a nice surprise when I found out about this first, more recent, Novel of the Remembrance of Earth’s Past saga from Author Liu Cixin.
