Silo Origines

Product Information

Immediately after finishing the Wool series, I was pleasantly surprised to find that Hugh Howey had finished Third Shift, which meant that Shift Omnibus was complete, and I could dive right into it. Piper, München, 2013, , 531 S., Hardcover (gebunden), 8°, mit Schutzumschlag, , Einband: leicht bestoßen, Schutzumschlag: leicht bestoßen. Lately I seem to keep running into novels of good ideas and poor execution i.e. Justin Cronin's 'Passage' and Ernest Cline's 'Ready Player One'. It's disappointing and as a contrast i'd recommend Steven King's 'The Stand' as an example of the apocalypse done right with solid world-building and well drawn characters we come to love or hate. For me it's still the gold-standard. Humanity clings to survival in the Silo, a subterranean city extending one hundred forty-four stories beneath the surface. The series initially follows the character of Holston, the sheriff of the Silo, with subsequent volumes focusing on the characters of Juliette, Jahns, and Marnes. An ongoing storyline of the series is the focus on the mystery behind the Silo and the secrets it holds. Staff Thoughts:

Et puis, il y avait la routine, abrutissante. C’était la castration de la pensée, le train-train quotidien d’un employé qui observait la pendule en bavant, pointait en sortant, s’endormait devant la télé, tapait trois fois sur son réveil le matin, et rebelote. L’absence de week-ends n’arrangeait rien. Il n’y avait pas de jours chômés. C’était six mois de travail et des décennies de repos. De multă vreme îmi doream să ajung la începuturile Silozului și să aflu de ce s-a sfârșit întreaga lume... iar acum... ei bine, acum am aflat și nu sunt prea convinsă de plauzibilitatea evenimentelor: cum se poate să distrugi planeta pentru că ți-e teamă de o posibila armă devastatoare a unei alte națiuni? cum pot trei-patru oameni să-i convingă pe alții că e mai bine să ucizi miliarde pentru a salva câteva mii? mă depășește absurditatea acestei logici.... Totuși, lăsând la o parte nemulțumirile subiective, din punctul meu de vedere, Silozul. Începuturile completează destul de bine universul seriei; sper să apară și volumul final al trilogiei.

J'espère que tu trouveras le temps (ce sont deux beau gros pavés) et surtout que tu apprécieras autant que moi !
In fact, there are several plot holes in Shift. Most of them have to do with character motivation and time. But let’s forget about that for a minute. Let’s talk about the characters. Ne kiekvieną dieną rasi trilogiją, kurios viduryje – priešistorė, ir tai mane kiek baugino – imti ir dabar skaityti tai, kas buvo prieš. Ypač prisiskaičius neigiamų komentarų, dažnai rekomendavusių išvis šitą knygą praleisti. Bet aš niekaip neleisčiau sau paimti trečios dalies neperskaičiusi antros ir džiaugiuosi savo sprendimu. What happened to the rest of the world? Was it just Georgia that was destroyed? Or was it all of America? What happened in other countries? If you are into the meta planning scenario and slowly escalating thing after this one, try space opera, sci-fi, and hard sci-fi, where this element alone can be stretched to the length of average novels over the parts of a series. It opens very dense, inspiring, and thoughtful options to imagine the future not just from the protagonists´ perspectives, but to see it through the greedy salesmen´s and stupid politician´s eyes too.I very rarely read science fiction but this series by Hugh Howey sounded so interesting I gave it a chance. The first book was Wool Omnibus which was a 5 star read for me and this second book in the series didn't disappoint either. BOTTOM LINE: While the first half gave hope that this sequel could surpass Wool Omnibus, the story went downhill from there. Shift is still recommended for Wool fans, and it will not kill interest in reading the concluding volume even though it did not meet expectations.

It was dumb how Thurman and the other leaders just killed off loads of people whenever there was a slight problem. It just made the whole 50 Silos seem pointless, they may as well have just built a couple and let them sort out their own problems. The first Wool story was released as a standalone short in July of 2011. Due to reviewer demand, the rest of the story was released over the next six months. My thanks go out to those reviewers who clamored for more. Without you, none of this would exist. Your demand created this as much as I did. The main character arc should be the one that keeps the reader going of course and that worked pretty well, as it kept my interest start to finish. In a best case scenario the accompanying ones are just as interesting. I give Hugh Howey two hits and one miss. So there was a bit of a drag in Second Shift for me because I didn’t care all that much about Mission’s story. Expected way more of The Great Uprising, to be honest.This book has many very unfortunate factors that made me hate it. Part of it was that it was a sequel to a mind-blowing book. But it's not just that! The plot dragged and dragged and dragged... I can't think of a book that has tortured me quite so lately.
