5.0

A tense, post-apocalyptic thriller. I starting the book after seeing the advertisement for Silo on Apple TV and it was totally worth the read. It got a bit slow in the middle, but picked up nicely at the end. I found the plot unpredictable, and to the last page I was never sure how things would turn out. The world building was intriguing and in-depth.
