Blurb
The incredible first part of the follow up to bestseller Wool. Donald Keene has been recruited by the government to design a shelter. He has been told that it is just protocol. That it won’t really be used. That it is ‘just-in-case’. It is underground. Over fifty years later Donald’s design has been realised and the last remnants of mankind live in his silo. But no one can remember what life was like before. In fact, they’re forced to forget. One simple pill erases a memory. And with it, any chance of hope.

Wool
Dust (The Silo Trilogy)
The Heir (The Selection #4)
Also a controlled society where people's choices are engineered, but swaps bleak silo grief for palace romance and a guaranteed happy ending.
Landline
Keeps the ache of a marriage strained by time and distance, minus the dystopia; warm, funny, and hopeful instead of grim.
Attachments
Shares the voyeuristic pull of reading others' private messages, but it's a gentle office slow burn rather than a conspiracy.
Bare necessity
Another protagonist rebuilding after losing everything, though the tone is comic and the stakes personal rather than species-ending.
