This is a story that started as a series of e-book only installments and grew and grew in popularity until – quel surprise – a publishing company picked it up. Not only that but Ridley Scott has optioned the movie rights. AND I've heard various comments of the “you gotta read this” variety. So. Expectations were kinda high.

But. As you can see it took me over a month to read this. Doesn't classify as a page turner. I read it in very small portions and it was just okay. I don't think it'll make all that interesting of a movie either. What's it about? Well, scores of years after some unnamed apocalyptic event you've got a whole community living in an underground silo. To go outside will kill you. But the denizens of the silo are getting restless and asking the forbidden questions.
