Shift is the highlight book for me. I never got fully invested in Jule's story in Wool, and who was more preoccupied by the inherent mystery of the world. Shift gave me both answers and mysteries and carried that well into Dust. Dust alone is a satisfying conclusion to Jule's and Solo's stories, and I loved that it left some mystery and space. The cause of the apocalypse presented was unique and it reflected really well on the themes of the books. But there wasn't a stand-out moment that blew me away.
