There's a free html text of Roadside Picnic on the internet. It's a on Russian server, so I suppose it's legal in Russia, but I won't post the link just in case. The surviving brother died last November. RIP, Arkady and Boris Strugatsky.
I totally agree there about Ender's Game.

Two version of Roadside Picnic can be found at the bottom of its wikipedia page. I posted them here, but it's been edited. Sorry about that.

It is a great read and, unfortunately, Eastern European SF is not that well known in the Western world so we could give it a chance.
