Wool by Hugh Howey
4.0

One of the wave of books made possible via Amazon's self-publishing platform and popularized via word of mouth and grass roots popular acclaim.

Could have been titled "Mary Sue in the Fallout Vault". :) There was absolutely nothing original here- the post apocalyptic setting is a shameless copy of the Fallout video game's vaults. (Which wasn't particularly original to begin with).

The characters are standard hero archetypes. Despite that it was a thoroughly enjoyable and fast paced read. Though for something that spanned 500 pages we should have gotten something better in the way of character development or world building.
