Oh my goodness! I finished reading Wool Omnibus Edition over the weekend, and I cannot say enough great things about it. It is an awesome read! The book is written by Hugh Howey, and it is fantastic! You won't see it in most stores because the author self-published, and it is printed on demand. Don't let that fool you! This book has received over 2,000 ratings on Amazon and has earned five star status. It was originally written as a series of short stories, but has since been combined into one complete story.
This book is set in the future after a global calamity. The characters live in an underground silo to protect them from the elements outside. No one is allowed to even speak of the outside world. Anyone who dares talk about it is given exactly what they want. They are put outside. The story is told from the viewpoints of different characters and follows them as they discover terrible secrets about their home, their leaders, and the reason they are living where they are.
This book is part science fiction, part mystery, part suspense. I literally could not put it down! The characters are intruiging, and the plot keeps you guessing. I would HIGHLY recommend this book . . .especially to fans of dystopian literature, science fiction, and mystery.
