My nick in many forums is Stalker... :) The film shot by Tarkovsky was based rather not on the novel as such as on Strugatskys' screenplay named "The Machine of Desires", which, in its turn, was based on the idea of the Zone and Stalkers developed in the book. The other news is that all of the Russian section of Internet is discussing hotly the final part of the film "Inhabited Island" based on Strugatskys' novel of the same name. (the trailer Russian is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iXZXB5tRck ) And here is the info of that book (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prisoners_of_Power) It's the first part of the trilogy about Maxim Kammerer 2. Beetle in the Anthill http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beetle_in_the_Anthill 3. The Time Wanderers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Time_Wanderers
Hope, you will like these too if or once you have read them.
