Story
The old world is buried. A new one has been forged atop the shifting dunes. Here in this land of howling wind and infernal sand, four siblings find themselves scattered and lost. Their father was a sand diver, one of the elite few who could travel deep beneath the desert floor and bring up the relics and scraps that keep their people alive. But their father is gone. And the world he left behind might be next.

Founded by the mysterious genius known as the Designer, the archipelago of Prospera lies hidden from the horrors of a deteriorating outside world. In this island paradise, Prospera’s lucky citizens enjoy long, fulfilling lives until the monitors embedded in their forearms, meant to measure their physical health and psychological well-being, fall below 10 percent. Then they retire themselves, embarking on a ferry ride to the island known as the Nursery, where their failing bodies are renewed, their memories are wiped clean, and they are readied to restart life afresh.

Paxton never thought he’d be working for Cloud, the giant tech company that’s eaten much of the American economy. Much less that he’d be moving into one of the company’s sprawling live-work facilities. But compared to what’s left outside, Cloud’s bland chainstore life of gleaming entertainment halls, open-plan offices, and vast warehouses...well, it doesn’t seem so bad. It’s more than anyone else is offering.

Publisher's Summary
Watch Silo, the new Apple TV+ sci-fi series starring Rebecca Ferguson and Tim Robbins, starting May 5th, 2023!
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.

Narrator is far superior to the original audio book..
I got and listen to the original version of this book around 10 years ago. While the story was good the main complaint was the lady who narrated it. It was so bad that a couple of years later they hired another woman to redo it and it still was hard to listen to. (Please note I did love the 2nd books original narration by TGR.)I have listened one of Edoardo narrated books in the past. I think it was a fictional WW2 holocaust story and it was fantastic. I’ve listened to the first couple of hours to this book and it’s a night and day difference in quality. The Story it self is very good and that why it’s getting it own Apple TV series.

THIS is a strong female character
This isn’t about some Marry Sue character that can beat up 5 Navy Seals bare handed and still make it to her nail appointment on time. This is a good story with a good portrayal of a men and women dealing with a unique situation. The bad guys are almost understandable, and the good guys are morally gray sometimes. Great Sci-Fi.

I have only made it to chapter 17. I don’t think I can finish it. Characters are poorly developed. Story,so far, is just dull. I had high hopes. Maybe too high. I may slough through the rest but so far it’s a struggle.

Some good ideas but roughly written.
What I appreciate most about this story is that it early on acknowledges that it is a Sci fi trope and doesn't try to hide it.
After a solid beginning of the story, everything grinds to a halt and there is a lot of chapters that really doesn't add anything to the story.
The end comes abruptly and not at all satisfying. The love story makes no sense either, it is hard to take that part seriously.
Even though it was somewhat painful to get to the end of this book, I will give the sequel a chance because I think the world and ideas have potential, hopefully the author gets better the more he writes and practices.
