I liked shift, probably not as much as wool though. I feel like I havent yet had all my questions answered and at points during the book I felt lost. Overall-a good read!!

Loved this one as much as Wool. Can't help thinking what an excellent set of movies these books would make. I was bought Dust as a present, so excited but really hope that everything is explained and that there is a definite ending (whether it be a nice one or otherwise). Highly recommended and a must for all science fiction fans.

I love the books. I wish I was the sort of person who could read them again. Unfortunately I'm not. I know it's now a series called Silo. I have been really looking forward to it being released for some time, but as always it's on a subscription channel. I love dystopian films or programs & sci fi. But I never read the books as I don't generally enjoy them. This trilogy is an excellent exception and I would recommend the books. It would be unusual to read a 3 book series & not come across boring or predictable parts. However it is worth keeping your imagination open & giving these a whirl. Hopefully you'll love them.

About the author

Hugh Howey spent eight years living on boats and working as a yacht captain for the rich and famous. It wasn't until the love of his life carried him away from these vagabond ways that he began to pursue literary adventures, rather than literal ones.

Hugh wrote and self-published the Wool trilogy, which won rave reviews and praise from readers, and whose three books have gone on to become international bestsellers.

He lives in Jupiter, Florida, with his wife Amber and their dog Bella.
