Interesting project, in my opinion. I'll copy it now.

As they say, everything new is a well-forgotten old...

The authors, veterans of the "S.T.A.L.K.E.R." series, whose books were published even before the rights to the series were transferred to AST, are returning! They are returning with a new book series called "Zone of Death." It is known that the new series of books will be published by EKSMO and will start in November of this year. > View the digest <
This project will be independent of the "S.T.A.L.K.E.R." series that we are already familiar with, but at the same time, it will have much in common with it. The legend of the new series is as follows: a 3rd explosion occurs at the ill-fated Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, which destroys the Exclusion Zone along with all the mutants... At the same time, several new Zones are formed on the territory of the CIS, inhabited by previously unseen technogenic monsters. It is in these Zones that the events of the new book series will unfold.

Currently, there are 4 books known in the new "Zone of Death" series:

• "TITANIUM VINE" (Andrey Livadny)
• "TIME OF FIRE" (Vyacheslav Shalygin)
• "STEEL LOOP" (Roman Glushkov)
• "MARK ON THE BRAIN" (Alexey Kalugin) - the events of this book take place in the "Moscow" Zone.

We would like to note that the emergence of the new series does not mean the abolition of the "ordinary" Stalker series, which is currently published by AST. They will coexist and compete with each other. When fresh information about "Zone of Death" appears, we promise to promptly inform the visitors of stalker-book.com. For now, we provide a quote from Alexey Kalugin:
"The old Zone has been destroyed. Several new Zones have formed, scattered throughout the former USSR. In addition to the purely geographical difference, there is also some diversity in the populations of certain monsters, in the greater activity of certain factions. Although, of course, these are fragments of one large Zone with anomalous activity."

And I also found this, a table comparing them... here:


Does anyone else know about this? What do you think?

I haven't read "Zone of Death," but "Stalker" by Kalugin, Glushkov, Livadny, and Shalygin is one of the best books in the series. Currently, "Stalker" has declined in quality (referring to the books), and it's not even enjoyable to read anymore.
