Dust

This was a series I really enjoyed. The first few books are broken up into novellas, but stay the course and the books do get longer. They are split into “Wool”, “Shift” and “Dust”. The series is a post-apocalyptic novel about people living in underground bunkers or silos of 144 levels, not daring to venture outside. However, we soon find out there is more to the story; political unrest, heroes, villains and a kind of class system (Up-tops, Mids and Down Deep) within the silos.

The characterization of the book is wonderfully done and the author Hugh Howey really creates an interesting world that you feel you can't escape from. Many times I thought I knew how the story was going to turn out, but there are many twists and turns and I was engaged right to the end.
