Wool

Book 1 of Silo, the New York Times bestselling dystopian series, now an Apple TV drama

De: Hugh Howey

Narrado por: Susannah Harker

NOW THE NO.1 DRAMA IN THE HISTORY OF AppleTV+, SILO.

In a ruined and hostile landscape, in a future few have been unlucky enough to survive, a community exists in a giant underground silo.

Inside, men and women live an enclosed life full of rules and regulations, of secrets and lies.

To live, you must follow the rules. But some don't. These are the dangerous ones; these are the people who dare to hope and dream, and who infect others with their optimism.

Their punishment is simple and deadly. They are allowed outside.

Jules is one of these people. She may well be the last.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Exhilarating, intense, addictive. A novel you will never forget.

Thrilling, thought-provoking and memorable . . . one of dystopian fiction's masterpieces alongside the likes of 1984 and Brave New World.

Well written, tense, and immensely satisfying, Wool will be considered a classic for many years in the future.

Wool is frightening, fascinating, and addictive. In one word, terrific. (Kathy Reichs)

A thrilling sci-fi novel, equally adept at world-building, pulling the rug out from under its readers, and commenting in classic sci-fi fashion on our own present day.

Brilliantly written . . . Howey creates a starkly believable and terrifying apocalypse.

Wool is incredible . . . the best science fiction series I've read in years. (Douglas Preston)

Claustrophobic and, at times, genuinely terrifying.

Addictive to listen to

I got hooked on the TV series Silo and could not deal with the cliffhanger at the end of Season one. From what I could gather Chapter 33 of the book is where Season one ended and that is where I started listening. This was the first book I listened to by Author Hugh Howey, and I fell in love with his writing style. It is so descriptive that you can paint vivid pictures in your mind. Generally, I prefer a male narrator but given the fact that the main character Juliette is a female the narration was actually perfect. I feel that the narrator did not have to be ‘extra’ and the subtle changes in her voice to reference the different characters was just perfect. Overall an addictive listen!

Good story, ok narration

Good story with a fascinating dystopian concept. I'm looking forward to Shift. Unfortunately the narration was competent but not really captivating.

An oldie but a goodie!

This is the third time I have "read" this book over the years. I enjoy it every single time. This series will be one of my favorites, always.

Stunning

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This story will stay with me for a long time. The narration is hauntingly beautiful, the characters are well developed and engaging and the story keeps you guessing right until the end. Couldn't recommend this any more highly.

what a book!

this is a really wonderful listen. such an amazing story. I thought it migjt be doom and gloom but it's really not. there's a tinge of hope that the story beings even to the darkest of bits of the story.
