Synopsis
'The next Hunger Games' The Sunday Times
‘Well written, tense, and immensely satisfying, Wool will be considered a classic for many years in the future.’ WIRED
'Thrilling, thought-provoking and memorable ... one of dystopian fiction's masterpieces alongside the likes of 1984 and Brave New World.' Daily Express
'Howey's Wool is an epic feat of imagination. You will live in this world.' Justin Cronin
'Wool is frightening, fascinating, and addictive. In one word, terrific.' Kathy Reichs
In a ruined and hostile landscape, in a future few have been unlucky enough to survive, a community exists in a giant underground silo.
Inside, men and women live an enclosed life full of rules and regulations, of secrets and lies.
To live, you must follow the rules. But some don't. These are the dangerous ones; these are the people who dare to hope and dream, and who infect others with their optimism.
Their punishment is simple and deadly. They are allowed outside.
Jules is one of these people. She may well be the last.

Review
"Wool is ace and YAY it’s a trilogy." (Stuff magazine)
"I picked the serious up after the publication of Wool and Shift, and found myself counting the days until Dust came out in October." (Observer)
"A thrilling sci-fi novel, equally adept at world-building, pulling the rug out from under its readers, and commenting in classic sci-fi fashion on our own present day." (The Slate)
"Spoken about in the same breath as The Hunger Games and The Passage." (Independent on Sunday)
"Howey can really write ... frightening, intriguing, and mysterious ... it's easy to see why Wool captured readers so quickly." (Guardian)
"The massive underground hit ... Just don’t read it in the dark." (Sunday Telegraph)
"Frightening yet completely believable ... I can't wait to see how Howey develops Wool into his prequel and sequel." (Sunday Express)
"Exhilarating, intense, addictive. A novel you will never forget." (SJ Watson, author of Before I Go to Sleep)
"A small and zippy vehicle with impressive narrative force...[Howey’s] plot twists like a thrashing serpent in a fisherman’s net." (Sunday Business Post)
"With Wool Hugh Howey has created a new science fiction classic! The riveting storyline and detailed prose sucks you in immediately and makes you feel like you're right there in the silo with his characters. But unlike them, you'll be in no hurry to leave." (Ernie Cline, bestselling author of Ready Player One)
