Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

The much-anticipated final instalment of the Wool trilogy.

In the aftermath of the uprising, the people of Silo 18 are coming to terms with a new order.

Some embrace the change, others fear the unknown; none have control of their fate.

The Silo is still in danger.

There are those set on its destruction.

Jules knows they must be stopped.

The battle has been won.

The war is just beginning.

A Fabulous and Well Read Ending

If you could sum up Dust in three words, what would they be?

Suspenseful, sad, well-paced

Who was your favorite character and why?

Juliet. It's always good to see a strong, heroic female leading a cast of characters.

Which scene did you most enjoy?

The final scenes

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Both

Any additional comments?

I am so pleased that Susannah Harker was back to read this final installment. (with all due respect to Peter Brooke) her reading of the first was beautiful and emotive and it was wonderful that she read this one. Fabulous.

Weakest of the trilogy

Would you listen to Dust again? Why?

No, it was not a well written book, simply a means to end the trilogy

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

The story did not hold up to expectation and was simply a means to conclude the trilogy story. On its own not great, as a book end, it was ok

What three words best describe Susannah Harker’s performance?

Ok at best

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Nope!

Any additional comments?

Only read to finish the trilogy

dramatic conclusion to the Wool Trilogy

What made the experience of listening to Dust the most enjoyable?

The second novel, Shift, was quite a detour but it tied together a lot of loose ends and explained much. Whilst Wool is by far the best nnovel of the three imo this one, Dust, comes in as a close second, It has a lot of the vitality and charges along at a breakneck speed. I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook.

What did you like best about this story?

Well written and captivating, the story carried me along. Loved the last few chapters especially.

What about Susannah Harker’s performance did you like?

Susannah Harker's naration was excellent, calm and well paced yet managing to convey all the tangled emotions of the characters as they hurtle about. One of the best narators that I've come across so far.

Best of the 3 books

I found book 2 hard to get through but this was a fitting end to the saga and the narrator for me was spot on, wish she had done the 2 book.
