The Outpost is Dmitry Glukhovsky’s departure from the Metro universe, though it shares that series’ interest in closed societies under pressure. The story centers on an isolated settlement whose inhabitants have been cut off from the rest of civilization.

Originally published in Russian in 2019 and translated into English in 2024, The Outpost explores how a community governs itself when there is no outside authority to answer to. The book shows Glukhovsky working in a different register from the Metro trilogy, though the themes of survival and political control remain.
