Publisher Description
For the first time ever, The Silo Saga Omnibus brings together all of the work in Hugh Howey's ground-breaking, best-selling, acclaimed series, including the individual novels Wool, Shift, and Dust, as well as original essays by the author, and a bonus chapbook of short fiction, Silo Stories
The remnants of humanity live underground in a vast silo. In this subterranean world, rules matter. Rules keep people alive. And no rule is more strictly enforced than to never speak of going outside. The punishment is exile and death.
When the sheriff of the silo commits the ultimate sin, the most unlikely of heroes takes his place. Juliette, a mechanic from the down deep, who never met a machine she couldn’t fix nor a rule she wouldn’t break.
What happens when a world built on rules is handed over to someone who sees no need for them? And what happens when a world broken to its core comes up against someone who won’t stop until things are set to right?
Their world is about to fall. What—and who—will rise?
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A world built on lies unravels in Hugh Howey’s compelling dystopian trilogy. After the earth’s surface becomes toxic and uninhabitable, humanity is sorted into three levels in a series of underground silos, where they’re safe from the contaminated environment. But the status quo is threatened when the truth about the silo’s history comes to light, forcing lower-level mechanic Juliette and top-tier architect Donald to join forces and free their society from repression and lies. With a clever mix of steampunk engineering and futuristic technology, Howey builds a clanging, dark, and claustrophobic world—with a creative premise that feels eerily plausible. The inspiration for an Apple Original series, these post-apocalyptic books are thrilling—and the bundle makes it easy to binge-read ’em!
Customer Reviews
I quite liked it…
… maybe the ending felt a bit rushed but still, loved the whole arc.
Riveting
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.
Meh
Interesting premise. Flat characters. Perfunctory writing. The first book was sufficiently engaging. The second didn’t keep my attention.
