With the oil-thick resistance and heavy earth pressing in all around her it becomes apparent that despite her reluctance Jules just might be the the only person in the deep warren of her world who can lift the wool from their eyes.Īll in all, Wool is a captivating universe filled with rich characters whom Howey has brought to us through the lens of a broken world. Jules is a non conformist and knows that things in the silo need drastic change yet the unseen ears and subtle whispers through the walls work to conspire against her to keep the system alive to keep the citizens in line. We meet Juliette or Jules as she prefers, our begrudgingly chosen hero whose knack for fixing things and head strong demeanour is the nuts and bolts of the entire Mechanical division which in turn holds together the entirety of the silo. Yet in the shadow of the last uprising, the air within the silo is rife with tension, broiling in the down deep of girders and perpetual mechanical whirs. The stark presentation of life after global destruction depicts humanity's bitter grip on survival whilst buried deep within a self-sustainable mega structure formed on rigid social compliance and an almost infallible system. Hugh Howey's first installment of the literal underground bestelling Silo trilogy �Wool� takes us to a setting within the bowels of the Earth enveloping us in a world of steel,concrete and most importantly deception.
