Try to learn Russian now. To a level that will allow you to properly enjoy the books, not just "understanding most of it, so it is not a problem".
We will see how many years it will take and how many years/hours of boring memorising of words to build up your vocabulary. Just passive vocabulary, I am not talking about active, you don't need it for reading books.
