 “The Legacy was the truth allowed, he wanted to say, the truth that was carried in all the silos for future generations.”
Hugh Howey, First Shift: Legacy

I really enjoy this series. Silo was my favourite show and book that I read in 2023 so I will inevitably read any story related to this. As much as I loved Troy's story inside the silo I found myself just skimming over the Donald chapters. They weren't as interesting to me, If they had went more into the actual design and functionality of the silo I would have been more into it.

Regardless I will continue this series because the overall idea of it is super fascinating to me.
Was not a fan of the 50 silos for 50 states thing though. Americanism is exhausting for someone who doesn't live in America
