About this listen
World War Three wiped out the humankind. The planet is empty now. Huge cities became dust and ashes. Railroads are being eaten by rust. Abandoned satellites hang lonely in their orbits. Radio is mute on all frequencies. The only survivors of the last war were those who made it into the gates of the Metro, the subway system of Moscow city.
It's there, hundreds of feet below the ground, in the vaults of what was constructed as the world's largest air-raid shelter, where now people try to outlive the end of days. It's there that they created a new world for themselves. The stations of the Metro became city-states, and its citizens, torn apart by religions and ideologies, are fighting for now-scarce commodities: air, water, and space.
This tiny underground world can only remind humans of an immense world they once were the masters of. It's been 20 years since Doomsday, and yet the survivors refuse to give up. The most stubborn of them keep cherishing a dream: when the radiation level from nuclear bombings subsides, they will be able to return to the surface and have the life their parents once had. But the most stubborn of the stubborn continues to search for other survivors in this huge emptiness that once was called Earth. His name is Artyom. He would give anything to lead his own people from the underground onto the surface.
And he will.

Story
It was the end of World War II. FDR's New Deal had redefined American politics. Taxes were at an all-time high. The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki had created a fear of total annihilation. The rise of secret government agencies and sanctions on business had many watching their backs. America's sense of freedom was diminishing... and many were desperate to take that freedom back.

Story
When the Imperial prison barge Purge—temporary home to five hundred of the galaxy’s most ruthless killers, Rebels, scoundrels, and thieves—breaks down in a distant part of space, its only hope appears to lie with a Star Destroyer found drifting and seemingly abandoned. But when a boarding party from the Purge is sent to scavenge for parts, only half of them come back—bringing with them a horrific disease so lethal that within hours, nearly all aboard the Purge die in ways too hideous to imagine.

Very good way to finish the trilogy.
I enjoyed this book. However one of the aspects of the first and second stories I enjoyed were the various mutants and paranormal phenomena present in the metro and on the surface.
This story contains basically none of those. This story is entirely about people and follows an almost biblical storyline.
All in all a very good book but it lacks the sci-fi elements of the first two.

The Metro Series Doesn't Miss
I've always loved the Metro series, I was glad to revisit 2035 with Rupert Degas, he breaths a lot of life and individuality into the characters with his performance.
Glukhovsky delivered another fine story with this one, that weaves in previous personalities from the other books, and even some mentions from the game series.
Speaking of the games, it's been fun working out a cohesive Canon between the game series and the books, as Glukhovsky contributes to both, I'm looking forward to more of his work!

best book i have ever heard
this is the best book i have ever heard, i found out about this series when i found the game for sale for cheep and fell in love with the series and then listened to all three books, i got audible just for this series, the books had me on edge the entire time and the narrator made these books even more amazing he makes every character sound different and unique. if you love Russian sci-fi this is a book for you.

Fantastic
A great book, if you enjoyed playing Metro Exodus and never read a Metro book this is a phenomenal alternate ending. If you liked the Metro 2033 book but wanted Artyom to not be as much of a b**ch then this read is better than the former.

the death of a good trilogy
metro 2033 was the only good book in this trilogy. metro 2035 losses all the good qualities that metro 2033 gave birth to. there is a lack of philosophy, horror, tension, wonder etc within this novel as if the writers were changed. if you loved metro 2033 give this a pass as it doesn't do much to feed the curiosity of the reader

It's A Conclusion...I Guess
I am a big fan of the Metro video games and just finished this last book in the trilogy, though really only the first has much to do with the games. This is definitely better than the second book (which felt largely pointless) but still nowhere near as good as the first. The first half is the overly wordy exposition common in this series that doesn't end up going anywhere. Things pick up and get more interesting in the second half, though this is heavily dampened by a plot hole so large, you could fit a freight train through it sideways, followed by a huge let down of an ending that makes a lot of the heavy exposition feel largely pointless. This entry in the series also seems to entirely forget the existence of any creatures in the world, which hurts the ultimate conclusion even more.
The reader is very good when just narrating but his attempts to act our each character (particularly the female ones) gets old fast and only older as the books go on. I really wish he would just have read the words and leave the reader to determine the voices.
Overall, I had hoped for a lot more from this series. The world and lore are interesting but a lot of the books feel like filler and that the core plot could have been told in half the time. If you like dark sci-fi, it could be interesting but even as someone who love post-apocalypse fiction, this didn't land as I'd hoped it would.
