Wool introduced the world of the silo. Shift told the story of its creation. Dust will describe its downfall.

Juliette, now mayor of Silo 18, doesn’t trust Silo 1, especially its leader, Donald. But in the world of the Silos, there is no black and white — everything is shades of gray. Donald may not be the monster Juliette thinks he is, and may in fact be key to humanity’s continued survival. But can they work together long enough to succeed?

satisfying conclusion, gives the characters (and the main character, the world-building) their due

5 stars

This was a very satisfying conclusing to the trilogy. I was mesmerized by the first book and enjoyed the second, although I have to admit it was a slowdown, but things pick up again with this third installment. These are all long stories with a lot of chapters constantly switching points of view (maybe that's a good thing as there are plenty of people-will-be-idiots scenarios which had me thinking this could get aggravating) but the action really gets going toward the end so I was bingeing the last chapters and also wondering if I was mistaken, there are so many things going on this must result in a cliffhanger for another book. And really, I wouldn't have minded.
