Reviews
Bad format
1By tc_stingDo not buy this. The format is unreadable because some one scanned in PDFs rather than true text. Shame on Apple for allowing this to be sold on their storePurchase a different version
1By hauntedhorseThis review is for the format of the book because it’s basically unreadable. At least apple refunded me. Do not buy this version.Amazing
5By Reviewer-84A friend recommended this to me and I’m in love with it. However, the book is very long and I’m barely done with the first chapter. Other than that I highly recommendWow
1By Spetsnaz CowboyYeah I don’t feel robbed at all for buying a freaking pdf formatted, unreadable, piece of garbage...thanks Apple.Shame on you Apple for allowing this !!
1By fdimeglioPiece of crap! Not the book itself but it’s format. This is a real shame that Apple is allowing to sell such a junk: this is totally unreadable and basically a PDF print. Font size not ajustable too... Are we back to before Gutenberg ?!?Text is impossibly small
1By sunnyday real escapeIt hurt my eyes so much I stopped reading it. And there is no way to adjust the size of text or formatting.Disappointing
4By CpncrunchOne star for the non adjustable font size. I always read on my iPhone and this is impossible to read. Edit: I finally got an iPad and was able to read this book, and I’m glad I did. The non adjustable font size is still an issue but the story is great, it’s no wonder they made a game set in this world.Terrible
1By Jacob the BruceShallow writing with no depth. Weak attempt at a twist at the end. Uninteresting characters. Vague and uninteresting antagonists. Protagonist is basically a blank slate. My score:9% Would not recommend.TERRIBLE
1By Benji4291I didn’t even read the book but the first 10 pages made me fall asleep.No cheeki breeki, good book
5By JamesOfAppleMetro 2033 is a wonderfully constructed novel written by excellent storyteller, Dmitri Glukhovski. It follows Artyom, a 20 year old boy, who finally breaks free from his station, where he has spent a good 15 years of his life. He is no bold action hero, however, but he is a cautious, but adventurous character, looking to explore the world around him. His mission is to deliver what Hunter, a bold man who protects the metro, has entrusted him with to give to his companions. He discovers the violent, and ultimately self-destructive instincts of men, and the strange activities that go on within and without the metro. He meets strange and interesting people who try to help him or in a worse case, themselves. I found I couldn’t put this book down, it was very interesting and emotional. The book itself, however does have issues, the publishers of this copy made the book in such a format that you cannot change color, font, font size. But this is one of the few online copies I could find that was in English. !!\\\\////TO THE PUBLISHERS:\\\\////!! Could you please publish English translations of Metro 2034, 2035? I, and likely others, will buy them from you.
