About this listen

Watch Silo, the Apple TV+ series based on the bestselling Silo Saga!

Wool introduced the world of the silo. Shift told the story of its creation. Dust will describe its downfall.

Juliette, now mayor of Silo 18, doesn’t trust Silo 1, especially its leader, Donald. But in the world of the Silos, there is no black and white—everything is shades of gray. Donald may not be the monster Juliette thinks he is, and may in fact be key to humanity’s continued survival. But can they work together long enough to succeed?

What listeners say about Dust

Highly rated for:

The Story In The Audiobook Series Is Praised For Its Captivating Storyline, Engaging Plot, Complex Characters, Immersive World-building, And Unexpected Twists That Keep Listeners Hooked. However, Some Criticize The Rushed Ending, Underdeveloped Subplots, Inconsistent Characterization, Plot Holes, And Slow Pacing At Times. The Overarching Themes Revolve Around A Dystopian Future, Survival And Hope, Humanity's Resilience, Power And Control Dynamics, And Moral And Ethical Dilemmas. Overall, The Story Is Commended For Its Originality And Thought-provoking Exploration Of A Post-apocalyptic World, Despite Some Flaws In Execution.

A decent ending

I feel like the author didn’t know how he wanted to end this book & I’m disappointed by some of the choices he made, but overall it was ok. Decent end to the series.

Wonderful Read

It was a fantastic story and ending to the trilogy. For me, the narration was perfect and kept me alert all through the book.

Loved this series!

I too got the books after watching the first several episodes of the Apple+ series. Although the streaming series takes some different turns, both are excellent. Would highly recommend!

Awesome trilogy that I didn't ever want to stop!

I read the reviews referencing the ending being too abrupt. While I certainly can understand that viewpoint, I think the entire series was so great that no matter what ending occurred it would have felt abrupt because we are all left wanting more! Wonderful writing and captivating story!

Excellent!

This is a fantastic story that was very hard for me to put down, I’m sad and happy at the same time that is over, I wish there is more … maybe some day. I don’t know I managed to put this off for so many years.

Couldn’t Put It Down

Each book built upon the prior ones. Good character development and action. Couldn’t put it down as it was a nice way to tie it all together.

Enjoyed the trilogy

While the adaptations the short stories is a bit uneven, they remain quite imaginative and entertaining. Dust is a nice wrap up of the series.

Great series!

I started listening because of the Apple TV series. Then I couldn’t stop listening to the Audible Series. A must read in the proper order. Great series that introduced me to a new author.
