Why unusual? Well, because there is not even a meter or claustrophobic underground tunnels, which are a common feature of substantially all of the previous novels. From this rule slightly peeling is true also “Mrówańcza” there but people living in “traditional” buried deep tunnels and departure from the canon was not as noticeable. The local hero – stalker Daniel and his brothers and sisters live in najzwyczajniejszym shelter located near the nameless city. Therefore, as well Szabałowa book could therefore be issued without the logo on the cover of the universe known even then could disappear in a flood of similar items and do not hit “the machine” to a wide range of fans of Metro 2033. Such suspicions gained approaching the mid-reading.
That Daniel is a member of a small community living in the basement of the old railway station, and attenuated in the book, the story does not belong to the complex. One day to the nearby military base, with the inhabitants of the trading people Daniły, comes a mysterious caravan. Because I should add that the radioactive fallout in this case is not so very dangerous, allowing relatively free movement across the surface and most of the action happens on it, which is another distinguishing feature. Superiors stalker, intrigued by the fact that neighbors have not informed as they used to, the arrival of visitors, require him to investigate the case, which inevitably leads to conflict on both sides. The chapters that are happening now are interspersed with flashbacks in which poznajmy difficult beginnings of life in the shelter, and the story of the childhood of the protagonist, creating a coherent and interesting whole.
“The right to use force” there is no moralizing tone or metaphorical meanings not analyze the morality poastapokaliptycznego man nor weaves together paranormal inclusions, which repeatedly scrolled in the novels of the universe. Naturally they appear here indispensable mutants, but the story primarily deals with the difficulties of everyday life in the absolute world and the fight of man against man driven by the desire to acquire the necessary raw materials for life. I will not be charmed – novel Szabałowa no special panache, is written in simple language, and certainly not hit my masthead position of the Universe Metro 2033. On the other hand, is a novel in every way correct, that reads quickly, pleasantly and without major glitches. If you set the digestible interlude heavier readings of the genre, you should not be disappointed.
P.S. The book is accompanied by a second volume of stories Polish fans universe Metro 2033 entitled “Echo deceased world.” Thus, the price of one book get twice as much reading as it will not be without significance for considering a purchase.
