I picked up this audio book because I just finished watching the first season of "Silo" on Apple TV+. No spoilers here, except to say the only similarities are the overall concept/universe and some of the central characters. The show fleshes out character stories and creates numerous characters who aren't in the book at all. The book goes WELL beyond where the first season ends, so perhaps avoid the book if you're into the show and don't want to have a good idea about where the second season may go. I will say that the show helped me imagine what the silo looks like and without this visual, I don't think my reading would have been as rich. The writing is adequate in moving the story, but it isn't great literature as there's too many cliches and frequent over description - which slows the plot to a crawl in places. I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series as I do like the concept, the main characters and am curious to see how the author develops this quite believable world.
