More than 80 books and over 6 million copies of the Stalker book series have sold in Russia and in Germany. The official S.T.A.L.K.E.R book series has taken on a new image — graphic novels that will immerse you in the world of the Zone where dangerous anomalies lie in wait for the Stalkers at every turn and where hideous mutants and zombies are on a continuous hunt for man.
A Swedish tourist named Max Cotten vanishes without a trace during the European Football Championship in Kiev. A friend receives his notes contained in a package. Max is alive for now, but will he be for long? Involuntarily, he is in the most dangerous place on Earth — the Zone. Is there a way to freedom amid a man-hunt? Will Max want to leave the Zone or will he risk it all and stay to search for an answer to a lingering question?

Hey Olcha, I bought the graphic novel for the Kindle the other day. I haven't played STALKER or read any of the other books, but I'm looking forward to reading this one.

I'm waiting for the two English language books myself. I'm not convinced the graphic novel is worth the money so I'll wait for reviews by anyone from this forum before I decide to buy it.

I should have posted the other day when the price dropped to zero for the Kindle version. It's back up to $6 which is less than the $10 it started at.
But the reviews so far aren't very positive.

Some reviews are not very positive because they were written by one author who stole trademark of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. He wants to make a bad impression of our book for all post-apocalyptic fans. But we really needs your opinion. What do you think? Do your like it?

Haven't read it myself, but I have seen multiple reviews stating the first graphic novel is not worth purchasing.
