Apr 02, Chip rated it it was ok Shelves: The first book and perhaps the second were better Jan 04, Manda Meow rated it it was ok Shelves: While the narrative style is pleasant, there are far too many plot inconsistencies both within this story and between Howey's silo world and the world Davies describes.

    There is little that is truly creative here, the author has only recombined borrowed ideas, and not very well at that. This entire piece seems like a big missed oppertunity. Unfortunately, even his treatment of alternative sexuality seem's inconsistent with the world in which he is writing. In Howey's world, where breeding is limited by lottery and couples are not so secretly happy when a death occurs and provides a chance at a child, I just do not see the general population resenting men in a homosexual relationship because they aren't fulfilling thier duty to breed, pact or no pact.

    One would imagine this to be even less true in a flooded silo where space and resources are becoming scarce. I applaud Davies for attempting to address less mainstream ideas on sexuality, I just wish it had been done more skillfully. Jan 18, Andrew Lebwohl rated it it was ok.

    Davies might have stopped there. The middle of the book starts beating us over the head with borderline-polemical morality plays about a right-wing ethic surrounding the modern culture war issues of abortion and homosexuality. Oh, everyone instinctively feels that a new pregnancy is a baby whose life is more important than that of the parents? Oh, a gay guy can just decide to turn s th The writing was decent, and the story was told well for the first half.

    Oh, a gay guy can just decide to turn straight from loneliness? Davies is artlessly trying to press a view on the reader, and it's not one that I think is right or that I wanted to have shoved on me while taking in some escapist reading. Aug 22, Patrick Barnes rated it it was amazing.

    Davies wrote a miniseries that is just as good and fits into Wool as nicely. The characters and silos are written as well and in the same style as Howey.

    The Runner Series

    The introduction of a same-sex long-term relationship was a welcome surprise to the Wool universe. It never occurred to me how the Silos would handle that.

    Editorial Reviews. Review. "I don't want to spoil the plot; I'll just say that this is a fantastic story that deserves to be read. It is suspenseful and gut-wrenching. The Watcher (Silo Submerged Book 3) - Kindle edition by WJ Davies. 1. The Runner (Silo Submerged Book 1) $ 2. The Diver (Silo Submerged Book 2) .

    This book does it very well and the pressures that result Intensely Wool I was totally impressed by Ann Christy's fan fiction -Silo 49 and stunned by how easily it fit into The Wool universe. This book does it very well and the pressures that result on individuals are nestled into all the other pressures of a closed, failing environment built on lies and secrecy. This book made it an easy decision to read more of his books. Mar 11, Akoniti rated it it was amazing. A stellar entry in the Silo universe. Ann Christy's tales were enjoyable, but lacked a certain dark overtone that made Howey's originals so compelling.

    Not only is he a great writer, but he applies those skills masterfully to this particular world. He captures the feel perfectly, and created a real page-turner here. Nov 18, PJ Lea rated it liked it. I liked this, a nice read though I was expecting to see more about the actual flooding.

    Apr 23, Laura Preston-Mobley rated it really liked it.

    Nov 23, Mark rated it liked it. Jul 01, Daniel Fajardo Valenti rated it it was amazing Shelves: Very exciting story and much better than the previous book The Runner , it grabbed me from the start, and that book was a very good also. It has some very interesting and original ideas about situations and activities that happen inside the Silos that we haven't known about from the Hugh Howey books.

    This book follows the events of the Runner but with a different point of view. Like other reviewers have said, it's a worthy companion to the Silo series. Can't wait to read the Very exciting story and much better than the previous book The Runner , it grabbed me from the start, and that book was a very good also. Can't wait to read the next one. Its so interesting to picture how characters with the same "job" act so differently from silo to silo; or more accurately, from Wool to Kindle Worlds.

    A few typos and grammar errors but nothing that kept me from enjoying the story. Jun 28, Alan rated it it was amazing. After reading Davies The Runner I had to read this follow on. It is an excellent story and a worthy companion to the Silo series. It is a must to first read the original Wool and Silo books - if you're a SF fan you won't be disappointed. Jul 15, Sara rated it liked it. I liked it better than the first one, 'The Runner'.

    Jan 11, Toby Downton rated it really liked it. A very enjoyable fan fic building on Hugh Howey's incredible Wool trilogy. I tore through this one and the second. Would recommend to anyone who enjoyed the originals. Sep 08, Nikki Kocmut rated it really liked it. Started The Watcher immediately Jul 31, Silvia rated it it was ok.

    Liked it but found it a bit repetitive with things already mentioned in other silo books, loved that he continued his previous story. Dec 16, Lyndaa rated it really liked it. Another great episode in the life of Ace Enders. Sent out for cleaning for things didn't go as expected! May 15, nooker rated it really liked it. Nice follow up to the first covering different details in happening at the same as the first book. Also a good addition to the Silo universe.
