Dust (Hugh Howey)
Hugh Howey · 1 novel · 2013
Dust is the third and final novel in Hugh Howey's Silo series, after Wool and Shift, set in a network of underground silos where the last survivors of an environmental catastrophe eke out a rigidly controlled existence, believing the world outside remains lethally poisoned. It brings the trilogy's fractured storylines - across multiple silos, timelines, and the conspiracy behind their founding - to a close as survivors start to question what they've been told about the world above. It works best as a conclusion to the earlier books rather than as a starting point.
