About this listen
Watch Silo, the Apple TV+ series based on the bestselling Silo Saga!
The second volume in the New York Times bestselling Silo series. Hugh Howey goes back to show the first days of the Silo, and the beginning of the end.
In 2007, the Center for Automation in Nanobiotech (CAN) outlined the hardware and software platforms that would one day allow robots smaller than human cells to make medical diagnoses, conduct repairs, and even self-propagate.
In the same year, the CBS network re-aired a program about the effects of propranolol on sufferers of extreme trauma. A simple pill, it had been discovered, could wipe out the memory of any traumatic event.
At almost the same moment in humanity’s broad history, mankind discovered the means for bringing about its utter downfall. And the ability to forget it ever happened.

Story
The world outside has grown toxic, the view of it limited, talk of it forbidden. The remnants of humanity live underground in a single silo. But there are always those who hope, who dream. These are the dangerous people, the residents who infect others with their optimism. Their punishment is simple. They are given the very thing they want: They are allowed to go outside.

Story
The old world is buried. A new one has been forged atop the shifting dunes. Here in this land of howling wind and infernal sand, four siblings find themselves scattered and lost. Their father was a sand diver, one of the elite few who could travel deep beneath the desert floor and bring up the relics and scraps that keep their people alive. But their father is gone. And the world he left behind might be next.

Story
Dans un futur postapocalyptique indéterminé, une communauté d’hommes et de femmes a organisé sa survie dans un silo souterrain géant. Du monde extérieur, devenu hostile, personne ne sait rien, sinon que l’atmosphère y est désormais irrespirable. Les images de mauvaise qualité relayées par d’antiques caméras, montrant un paysage de ruines et de dévastation balayé de vents violents et de noirs nuages, ne semblent laisser aucune place à l’illusion. Pourtant, certains continuent d’espérer. Ces individus, dont l’optimisme pourrait s’avérer contagieux, représentent un danger potentiel.

Story
For centuries, men and women have manned lighthouses to ensure the safe passage of ships. It is a lonely job and a thankless one for the most part. Until something goes wrong. Until a ship is in distress. In the twenty-third century, this job has moved into outer space. A network of beacons allows ships to travel across the Milky Way at many times the speed of light. These beacons are built to be robust. They never break down. They never fail. At least, they aren’t supposed to.

A fantastic example of a GOOD sequel!
This book effectively builds on the previous book, explores so much, and to my great joy elevates the first! Fantastic listen!

This book is just as good as Wool and brings you along for the lives of the characters. The narrator is a pleasure to listen to.

Acceptable pulp fiction, but well read. Writer really leans into weak metaphors. The narrator does a good job differentiating voices.

Keep it coming!
I really enjoyed this book, could barely put it down. Admittedly, I was confused at the beginning, and actually had to Google if this book was related to the first one! Don’t despair, it all makes sense, and by a quarter through, I was enjoying it as much as the first.
I am about to start the third book.

Not great, kinda boring
Began this book series after watching silo on Apple TV. Enjoyed the story of Juliette, this book is in the same world, but it brings new story lines forward and doesn’t do much for the existing storyline that I liked so much. I didn’t care much for these characters and stopped listening to the book partway through. I am sure there is an audience for this book, but it is not myself.
