SEASON 2 OF THE ACCLAIMED SILO SERIES – BASED ON BOOK 1, WOOL – NOW ON APPLE TV+”One of dystopian fiction’s masterpieces alongside the likes of 1984 and Brave New World.” – Daily ExpressThe first book in the acclaimed, New York Times best-selling trilogy, Wool is the story of mankind clawing for survival in a toxic post-apocalyptic world. The view of it is limited, talk of it forbidden, as 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. After the previous sheriff leaves the silo in a terrifying ritual, Juliette, a mechanic from the down deep, is suddenly and inexplicably promoted to the head of law enforcement. With newfound power and with little regard for the customs she is supposed to abide, Juliette uncovers hints of a sinister conspiracy that launches a gripping science fiction mystery. Tugging this thread may uncover the truth . . . or it could kill every last human alive.”Claustrophobic and, at times, genuinely terrifying.” – Washington PostSEASONS 1 &amp; 2 OF THE APPLE TV+ STREAMING SERIES “SILO” ARE BASED ON THE EVENTS IN BOOK ONE OF THE SERIES, WOOL.
