Publisher Description
Watch Silo, the new Apple TV+ sci-fi series starring Rebecca Ferguson and Tim Robbins!
The first book in the acclaimed, New York Times bestselling 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.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
In Hugh Howey’s chilling postapocalyptic thriller, the toxic atmosphere has forced people to live in a 100-story silo deep beneath the earth, where they’re fed lies about the past and forbidden to dream about the future. But when mechanic Juliette ventures to the top levels of the silo, she discovers new information, threatening the status quo—and her life. The dark world Howey has created for his Silo series is eerily believable, in part because of all the vivid visual descriptions. Edoardo Ballerini’s crisp, sympathetic narration made it easy to imagine ourselves in the rickety and claustrophobic setting. Fans of dystopian fiction will get caught up in this engrossing story, the inspiration for an Apple Original series.

Very Addictive
Great book! Apple 🍎 did a good job of following the first half.
One of the best. EVER.
There is one word that comes to mind after reading Wool; one word that captures the essence of the author’s talent, prose, and storytelling brilliance: this book is simply delicious.
Like a fantastic wine you want to last but can’t help yourself from sipping. I bought the sequels when I was only halfway through this first novel.
It’s one of those rare gems that demand a weekend alone. Stormy weather outside. A log on the fire. And the chance to escape into this world.
Just… delicious.
Bland……
Just not that interesting. No actual detail of the setting. Just blah! Want my money back
