Wool - by Hugh Howey
Author's description of story: This is the story of mankind clawing for survival, of mankind on the edge. The world outside has grown unkind, the view of it limited, talk of it forbidden. But there are always those who hope, who dream. These are the dangerous people, the residents who infect others with their optimism. Their punishment is simple. They are given the very thing they profess to want: They are allowed outside.
So far so good - I'm about 60% done with the omnibus (volumes 1 - 5 all in one file 550 pages worth).
Could improve on his character development - but the plot is intriguing and I still have no idea what's going to happen, which is very unusual for me.
