AdaptationMEDIUM

Hugh Howey self-published Wool as a novelette in 2011 and the sequence grew from its readers asking for more of it, which is part of why the adaptation is notable: the television rights were bought on the strength of a self-published serial.

About the work

Silo

This is a series.

They live beneath the earth in a prison of their own making. There is a view of the outside world, a spoiled and rotten world, their forefathers left behind. But this view fades over time, ruined by the toxic airs that kill any who brave them. So they leave it to the criminals, those who break the rules, and who are sent to cleaning. Why do they do it, these people condemned to death? Sheriff Holston has always wondered. Now he is about to find out. The series started in 2011 with the short story Wool, which was later published together with four sequel novellas as a novel with the same name. Along with Wool, the series consists of Shift, Dust, and three short stories. The series has also been adapted as a graphic novel and a television series on Apple TV+.
