anyone read "Wool" by Hugh Howey?

It's an ebook that's coming out in print next month. I've got it reserved and wondering if anyone has read it yet.

(please no spoilers )

Thanks!

Start as they were written - Wool first. You're supposed to not know the backstory when you read it. I won't give any spoilers because it's lots of fun finding out little by little.

I've got the paperback reserved, along with Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. Let me know what you think when you're finished!

Thanks!

The online readers are free.

Okay, I loved Holston's story (the first part of Wool), and decided to get the Wool Omnibus.

Ok book, but the Earth gets warmer as you go deeper, not colder.
