Wool is an interesting story with a curious title. The final book in the Silo Series is Dust and it immediately follows the events in Wool. Shift is a prequel to the events in Wool. Currently there are two more books in the series, the next one is called Shift, and it comprises three stories. It comprises five short stories that have been combined to create Wool. Wool is a science fiction story that is told in a third person narrative. But what she finds, and the reason she was put out are very surprising. Instead she goes beyond the sightline of the silo and survives. Until one day when Juliette is sent out, but doesn’t die. If anyone suggests or even implies an interest in the outside, they are forced out, and end up dying within steps of the silo. However the worst offense an inhabitant can make is to talk about going outside. This existence has continued for hundreds of years, and numerous strict rules ensure the maintenance of the current lifestyle. The livable world is now encased by a silo that starts at ground level and extends far into the earth. The outside world is uninhabitable and humanity has moved underground.

So, in comparison, my books are each about the size of the combined episodes for each WOOL, SHIFT and DUST.Īs to Silo One, a secret part of me agrees with you on that. I did try to join them up, but it was over 850 pages in print and that was too big. Deep Dark and Dark Till Dawn are both well over 80K words (approx 330 pages dense print) and Flying Season for the Mis-Recorded is a reader-requested tie-in novella of something like 24K words (which is why it is only 99 cents). I’m so glad you’re liking the Silo 49 Series! As to length, Going Dark is something like 44K words (I think the first Wool episode was originally 12K? Maybe 20K?). I try to answer every one of those I can. Many of you have had fascinating questions, suppositions and even suggestions for future outcomes. I tell you, those notes from readers mean a heck of a lot. Most of you have said great things and that you have enjoyed the books. And then a lot of people started writing to me. Mostly because I couldn’t figure out the majority of widgets and that one was easy.
On my other site, my oh-so-beginner site,, I put this handy dandy Contact Me! widget in. He came back with an email with a single word on it, “MOAR!”. I wrote a very short, maybe 20K words, version of these three books. One day I was telling a fellow Woolian, (I totally got him hooked on it), and he asked me to write it and send it to him so we could discuss it. Not tooting my horn or anything, but I did figure out the ending long before DUST. Over time and with subsequent releases, I refined it and expanded it in my head to encompass pretty much the entire series as it stands now. By the time I closed the book, I was creating these people in my head. While reading the WOOL 2 novella (oh yeah, I was an early reader of the WOOL saga), I had a pretty strong inkling of what was going to happen. I started the Silo 49 story before I even knew it was a story. Silo 49 is a series of books that explores one of those places. He has graciously allowed many others to explore those untouched silos and hidden gems. Within the confines of his stories, we are left with big questions about what happened to everyone else in his world. The Silo 49 Series was written with the permission of Hugh Howey, the creator of the WOOL Universe.
