I'm the author of WOOL, a top 5 science fiction book on Amazon. I also wrote the Molly Fyde saga, a tale of a teenager from the 25th century who is repeatedly told that girls can't do certain things -- and then does them anyway.
A theme in my books is the celebration of overcoming odds and of not allowing the cruelty of the universe to change who you are in the process. Most of them are classified as science fiction, since they often take place in the future, but if you love great stories and memorable characters, you'll dig what you find here. I promise.
Thousands of them have lived underground. They've lived there so long, there are only legends about people living anywhere else. Such a life requires rules. Strict rules. There are things that must not be discussed. Like going outside. Never mention you might like going outside.
Or you'll get what you wish for.
What the press is saying:
Boing Boing's Official Review: "This story is terrific. I was completely immersed, watching Howey slowly paint a picture of a society gone wrong through the eyes and discovery of some truly compelling characters."
Wired.com's Official GeekDad Review: "Howey is among a growing list of authors who are making successful careers of publishing without the assistance of agents and traditional publishing houses. The traditional argument has been that if a book couldn’t find a publisher it probably wasn’t worth reading. However, just as iTunes changed how consumers found music and the way in which bands made their bread, ebook readers, and in particular the Kindle, are changing the ways in which authors find their readers and make a living. All of this means the old assumptions about indie books no longer hold true, and readers need to be prepared to adjust their expectations accordingly. The Wool Omnibus is a great book and deserves recognition as a full fledged contribution to the science fiction genre."

One of the best science fictions I've read. Suspense has been well kept. Emotions appear to be genuine. There is no strange or awkward emotional turning point: I love that Hugh Howey plotted and layered emotions well. The ending is a little bit of cliché, ...
評分1. 為毛地堡沒有電梯(也許就像小說裏說的為瞭主旨人們的交流但是始終覺得這個設定腦殘的很) 2. 為何他們不罷工 顯然這個更無産階級 哈哈哈。(後來威脅瞭停止供電)。其實我是覺得 底層的人民群眾 上去直接上去就和谘詢區開打,打的特彆突兀。 3. 科學性問題:一、無綫電問...
評分聽說這本書要被拍成電影,我一點都不感到奇怪。因為它本身就很有鏡頭感:剛剛還涓涓細流、慢條斯理地描述一個場景或者一段心理活動,接著就急轉直下,那種急切想知道結局的心情根本等不及眼睛追逐文字的速度。所以這毫無疑問是一本能一直吸引你讀下去的書,說它是有癮的毒藥,...
評分年輕時候最喜歡讀科幻小說,因為小說中的世界是可以根據作者要錶達的意圖任意塑造的,自從看瞭一篇作者描寫核戰後的小說我就不再看科幻小說瞭,因為覺得科幻小說中的世界即真實又殘酷。本書是多年後的一個例外,雖然閱讀後覺得很震撼很揪心,但是還是不後悔閱讀本書。 什麼是人...
評分圖書標籤: 科幻 小說 美國 外國文學 原版 買書如山倒讀書如抽絲 scifi sci-fi
一開始的劇情真的很驚奇很難以預料,後麵的功力稍顯不足,要看的話隻看這第一部就好,後麵的兩部據說更是急需敲打錘煉
評分極為乏味,昏昏欲睡(已讀60%+),難以想象在2011年還會有人喜歡這麼老派的故事。
評分說自己喜歡看scifi,被同事恥笑說沒看過wool就不能叫喜歡。前不久纔看過1984,相對而言這個世界還算是善良,開篇很是吸引人,作者筆觸流暢,看來要繼續看shift和dust,來完善這個silo係統瞭。
評分作者噓噓叨叨,但是齣乎意料的好看。就是有些人死瞭讓我很傷心,比如Knox
