Biographical note
Hugh Howey spent eight years living on boats and working as a yacht captain for the rich and famous. It wasn't until the love of his life carried him away from these vagabond ways that he began to pursue literary adventures, rather than literal ones.
Hugh wrote and self-published the Wool trilogy, which won rave reviews and praise from readers, and whose three books have gone on to become international bestsellers.
Exhilarating, intense, addictive. A novel you will never forget.
Thrilling, thought-provoking and memorable . . . one of dystopian fiction's masterpieces alongside the likes of<i> 1984</i> and <i>Brave New World</i>.
Daily Express
Well written, tense, and immensely satisfying, <i>Wool </i>will be considered a classic for many years in the future.
WIRED
<i>Wool</i> is frightening, fascinating, and addictive. In one word, terrific.
- Kathy Reichs,
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
Brilliantly written . . . Howey creates a starkly believable and terrifying apocalypse.
Sunday Express
<i>Wool </i>is incredible . . . the best science fiction series I've read in years.

Claustrophobic and, at times, genuinely terrifying.

_____________
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.
