THE BASIS FOR SILO, NOW A #1 STREAMING SHOW ON APPLE TV
"One of dystopian fiction's masterpieces alongside the likes of 1984 and Brave New World." -- Daily Express
The first book in the acclaimed, New York Times best-selling trilogy, Wool is the story of mankind clawing for survival. The world outside has grown toxic, the view of it limited, talk of it forbidden. The remnants of humanity live underground in a single silo.
But there are always those who hope, who dream. These are the dangerous people, the residents who infect others with their optimism. Their punishment is simple. They are given the very thing they want: They are allowed to go outside.
After the previous sheriff leaves the silo in a terrifying ritual, Juliette, a mechanic from the down deep, is suddenly and inexplicably promoted to the head of law enforcement. With newfound power and with little regard for the customs she is supposed to abide, Juliette uncovers hints of a sinister conspiracy. Tugging this thread may uncover the truth . . . or it could kill every last human alive.
"Claustrophobic and, at times, genuinely terrifying." -- Washington Post
SEASONS 1 & 2 OF THE APPLE TV+ STREAMING SERIES "SILO" ARE BASED ON THE EVENTS IN BOOK ONE OF THE SERIES, WOOL.

Initially I thought I had the book figured out. I’m glad I stuck with it because Howey did a good job keeping the reader engaged with just enough clues to keep me thinking about the world and the plot. There are times in the mid-late sections when I was less interested in the conflict, but the perspective changes and twists occurred frequently enough that it’s a minor nitpick on personal preferences, not a complaint on the book as a whole. I am looking forward to unraveling the rest of the world in the sequels, based on others’ spoiler-free reviews.
One of the best books I’ve read in awhile. The world building, non perfect protagonists, mystery and character development is like non other.
Very excited to read this. I saw a little indie game that was inspired by this book’s story and I loved the game. I knew I had to read the source material for it!
The Wool Omnibus is the best apocalyptic fiction I've ever read. After getting to know the lives of the various characters, the mystery of the world in which they live slowly unfolds to reveal a much bigger plot than the characters could have envisioned. This is *not a semi-romantic YA dystopian world. This is hard-core post-apocalyptic survival fiction. Once you've finished, you'll want to explore the many, many spin-off books set in the world of Wool. The author approved the publication of fan fiction by various authors, and you'll feel compelled to get sucked into hundreds more stories in the Wool universe.

The newest addition to The Hunger Games series came out to much fanfare last week. Sunrise on the Reaping, a prequel to Suzanne Collins's original trilogy, centers on a young Haymitch Abernathy on the dawn of his own reaping. When The Hunger Games came out in 2008, it was a smash hit, sparking a major trend in YA fiction.
