读过 Wool - Omnibus Edition 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑
第十六周；十八万字，花了五天读完，而且害得我熬夜，前期 cliffhangar 还挺多；世界观令人耳目一新，可以把这书归于「开拓世界」一类，即在未知的世界探索，突破困境，完成成长；不过后面斗争变得如同儿戏，那么多平民能变戏法地掏出火器干起来，两个蓝领部门联手居然还打不过一个白领部门甚至被反杀，警察机构沦为笑话；极限反杀也太牵强附会；之后干脆连善后都没有了；并不是很想花一百元大洋看后续。

Wool - Omnibus Edition [Book] Douban
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."
