Are the Metro books any good? A friend of mine is trying to get me into the series but I'm not sure if they're good or not.
I don't want to waste my time on garbage.

I just finished pic related. I thoroughly enjoyed it. My personal favourite aspect of the book was the way the ghost stories of the metro were imparted through campfire stories. Also coming straight from reading the Odyssey it was a very good adaptation of its themes. Wondering what everyone else thought about it?

I recently read this book and enjoyed it a lot, but jesus christ this edition is addled with typos and errors. I checked, and of course it's a woman who translated it. Didn't anyone proofread this shit? Some of it was extremely bad and distracting.
