My Review
Wool presents a challenging distopian future where mankind lives in airtight bunkers underground that span over 140 levels. Those who dream of a better future outside are sent to die. Those who follow directions get to live, usually.
The madness of this story isn't really that it's about a horrifying future - it's a story about the worst and best of human nature and the cataclysmic clashes between the two.
The omnibus version of Wool contains all 5 mini-books published by Howey in 2011.
