Interesting, but a lot of questions.... More than answers. And it feels like the 5 parts should have been one...

Interesting.

Wow. Although it starts out a bit slow, it picks up speed quickly and delivers on all cylinders. I'm off to pick up the Omnibus, so I can see what happens now.

A great, grown-up, dystopian story. It's dark but very readable. Definitely no love triangles here!

Not quite a 4 but close. The last 1/4 of the book saved it for me. I almost gave up in the middle and I skimmed alot of pages. Too wordy but good story. I also think killing off the 1st 3 characters made it hard to build a relationship with the rest.

A great short start into the series of short stories and novellas. Sometimes, I never know what I'm in the mood for until it hits me over the head, and Hugh Howey didn't use a piece of wool. Unless that piece of wool had a little something extra hid inside it, of course. Getting into the rest now. :)

Update: I read it again and still enjoy it. It is perhaps better in hindsight. :)

Interesting ideaI

This was a quick read, and it had an interesting premise. Other reviews classify this as a short story, but if so, it doesn't succeed because the details don't add up, there are just too many unanswered questions. To me it was like reading an idea, or first draft, of a novel that someone intends to go back and flesh out into something that might be pretty good.
