I bought the book series out of curiosity after watching Season 1 of Silo on Apple TV+, and am so glad I did. Excellent writing that expands on works that TV just cannot cover. I’m a fan of post apocalyptic fiction, especially immersive, long form ones. This gem kept me guessing and on tenterhooks to see what path it would take and how the twists would turn.

… maybe the ending felt a bit rushed but still, loved the whole arc.

All three books were very enjoyable and great reading.

Stop reading this and read the book.

I just finished Silo Series Collection by Hugh Howey, which includes the three novels of the Silo Trilogy and three short stories set in the same world. This series begins with the novel Wool, which is set in Silo 18 and introduces us to the setting at to Juliette (Jules) who is one of the primary characters in the series. The second novel Shift tells the backstory of the dystopian post-apocalyptic world, and that of Silo 17. In the final novel Dust here are basically two parallel stories that come together at the end. One is the story of the survivors of Silos 17 and 18, and the other is the story of those in Silo One. This is a pretty ambitious effort, and it all meshes satisfactorily in the end. These are the stories of people put into impossibly difficult situations, and who somehow manage to survive. You come to understand their motivations, even if you cannot agree with them. It’s a dark and gritty world, but fascinating nonetheless.

Loved the story from beginning to end!

I read Wool on a whim and then proceeded to devour the entire series in one weekend. They’re engrossing, I couldn’t put them down.

Interesting premise. Flat characters. Perfunctory writing. The first book was sufficiently engaging. The second didn’t keep my attention.
