Publisher's summary

Watch Silo, the Apple TV+ series based on the bestselling Silo Saga!

Wool introduced the world of the silo. Shift told the story of its creation. Dust will describe its downfall.

Juliette, now mayor of Silo 18, doesn’t trust Silo 1, especially its leader, Donald. But in the world of the Silos, there is no black and white—everything is shades of gray. Donald may not be the monster Juliette thinks he is, and may in fact be key to humanity’s continued survival. But can they work together long enough to succeed?

Well it just kept getting better.

It was a good listen. I’m not crazy about the reader. I liked the way the end twisted and the success of the main characters.

Great listen

Nice way to bring the story to a conclusion. Hope our world do not end up here.

Good Trilogy, Crazy Abrupt Ending

Look, I loved the series. Great story.

But every book (Dust being the most egregious of the three) is all about a long, drawn out build up, with a very quick, efficient, and in this case unsatisfying conclusion.

I kept looking at the book countdown on my app and thinking ‘there’s only 25 minutes left in this thing, how the hell can this thing get wrapped up in that time?’

The answer is, not well.

Huey does such a good job of developing these characters. So when their individual (and their corresponding group’s) story reaches its conclusion, you want to feel every moment with them. But you don’t get that chance. It’s so rushed with potential key storylines just kicked to the side.

These characters deserved better. The reader/listener deserved better.

An epic tale of the human spirit!

I just finished Dust, the third book in the Silo trilogy and can’t stop thinking about it. Hugh Howey delivers another thrilling cinematic tale with the same superb literary flair as demonstrated n the previous two novels, reminding us of all that is good about our complex species and the importance of clinging to our own individual humanity in these troubled times. Edoardo Ballerini’s narration is wonderful, as usual. Five star entertainment!

Well written, interesting plot, good worldbuilding

Overall I really liked this series. I'm thankful it rewards your hope, rather than lets you down. I won't spoil the ending, but overall, it's pretty satisfying. Very glad I found this series and will be recommending it to others.

Awesome

Brilliant and gripping story. Seems so plausible. A true dystopian classic. Right up there with On the Brach and similar sci fi.

Epic!

Wow!! I listen to a lot of audible books and this one left me speechless and in tears. Of the hundreds of audiobooks I’ve listened to this one is the most epic adventure I’ve been on thanks Hugh ❤️ Please keep writing. If you thought The Martian or Ready Player One or anything like those books were good this trilogy is worthy!
