Helpful Score: 2
At the suggestion of an author I recently reviewed, I finally got around to reading Wool by Hugh Howey and was greatly pleased with the recommendation. It seems I benefited from being a little late to the game as the first five stories had been bundled together while I procrastinated. This story is extremely well done from start to finish. I not only enjoyed it, but life pretty much came to a halt as I read it over the Memorial Day holiday. Another good indication of the storys quality is that I immediately purchased First Shift Legacy (Part 6 of the Silo Series) within hours of finishing because Id run out of book and wasnt ready for the story to end. Wool was so well done. I was truly intrigued by the characters and found myself fully involved especially once Juliettes struggles began in this controlled and broken world of the silo. She was a great character independent, intelligent, feisty, compassionate, loyal and willing to overcome any odds to survive against seemingly impossible odds. One of those characters who brings to mind the phrase indomitable will and I truly enjoyed this story from start to finish. Everything about this story was well done from social dynamics to the uncovering of the hidden truths. I can only suggest that you read it and hope that you enjoy the experience as much as I did. Id give it more than a 5, but thats as high as the rating scale goes.
