,,Everyone thinks they've got all the time left in the world. But they never stop to ask just how much time that is."
LABAI GERAI.
Daug geresnė nei pirmoji trilogijos dalis, dar labiau slow burnina su įtampa, kuri neslūgsta iki paskutinių puslapių.
Klaustrofobiškumo, vienišumo, tamsumo, drėgmės vaibas skaitant skyrius apie Jimmy, kuris liko vienas vienoje iš šachtų. Patiko šita linija, tikrai sirgau už jį ir buvo įdomu, kaip jam ten viskas pasiseks.
Kita linija - 2345 metai, pagrindinė šachta, kuri yra visko centras - valdžiai, išrinktiesiems, you name it. Nepaisant to, kad vis dar kyla klausimų, į kai kuriuos iš jų gauni atsakymus ir suryji kaip trupinius trokšdamas daugiau. Patiko Donaldas, kuris yra goodygood guy ir norintis išgelbėti pasaulį. Tik klausimas, ar įmanoma.
Nėra čia per daug perspaustos dramos, daug kas atsiskleidžia dialoguose, veikėjų pokalbiuose ir pamąstymuose su savimi. Veiksmas atrodo lėtokas ir pačių įvykių nėra tiek daug, bet visi svarbūs ir puslapiai tiesiog tirpsta.
Tamsi distopija apie tamsią (galimai) ateitį. Tegu visi kiti rantina kaip čia nieko gero, bet man patiko. Jau noriu trečios dalies.

"Shift goes back to show the first days of the Silo, and the beginning of the end In 2007, the Center for Automation in Nanobiotech (CAN) outlined the hardware and software platforms that would one day allow robots smaller than human cells to make medical diagnoses, conduct repairs, and even self-propagate."
Writing:Hugh Howey is fast becoming one of my favorite authors even though this is only the 2nd book I have read of his. I just love the way he writes. I am captivated by every word and he flawlessly immerses you into this world and keeps you there.
Characters: This may be the weakest part of this book. It is from 2 different POVs and one of them I honestly wasn't sure how I felt about them. I went through quite the rollercoaster of emotions with them and I think that is the point. The other POV is someone I adore.
Story: Wow. Just wow. Getting the backstory of everything and learning about 2 completely different people and their POVs was so interesting. It is a slow burn but it's so worth it.
Overall: Loved this book. So very much. It's heavy on the sci-fi/dystopian/apocalyptic themes but those are my jam! Highly recommend for fans of those genres!

I thought the writing was definitely better than Wool but still not great. For me though the story compensated, I love the premise. Also, PLEASE no more Solo, those are (some) rough pointless chapters.
