Review: Wool (Part One)

Jun 06, 2014 18:22


Wool by Hugh Howey
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this, though I think I missed the point.

The truth on top of a lie on top of the truth was interesting, but I'm not sure what the silo society had to gain by such an elaborate hoax (or not-hoax). This is part one, so I imagine that this will be explained in subsequent parts.

Speaking of, Wool felt very much like a complete short story. I'm wondering if the story was intended to just be the one novella, and Howey decided to continue after its positive reception.

An interesting concept, but I needed more for the author to get his point across.
