About this audiobook

Brought to you by Penguin.

NOW THE NO.1 DRAMA IN THE HISTORY OF AppleTV+, SILO.


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.

Its an interesting world, but you will find you are being told how a character is feeling instead of letting it organically play out quite a bit. could not get into this.

Great story but mediocre narrative, as it's obvious the author is American, whereas the narrator is British and therefore sounded strange and out of place with some of her pronunciations, especially with words and phrases that would be considered American vernacular.

About the author

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.
