Hey fellow book lovers! I want to read books/classics from all over the world. Please recommend me favorites from your home-country, something you would want others to know/to read. Already looking forward to your suggestions!

Thank you for the suggestion. Always wondered whether the games are based on the book. Am really curious about it!

Late to the party but 2033 (game & book) follow the same basic plot with different events. Metro 2034 (2nd book) is it's own thing. Metro Last Light (2nd game) inspired Metro 2035 (3rd book) which inturn inspired Metro Exodus (3rd game).

There are two different canons but generally overlap. The differences are largely based on adapting the books to work as games.

Ah, thanks a lot for clarifying! Super interesting how they inspired each other.
