From the Back Cover:
An epic feat of imagination. You will live in this world. Justin Cronin, best-selling author of The Passage
In 2007, the Center for Automation in Nanobiotech outlined the hardware and software platforms that would one day allow robots smaller than human cells to make medical diagnoses, conduct repairs, and even self-propagate. In the same year, a television program aired about the effects of propranolol on sufferers of extreme trauma. A simple pill, it had been discovered, could wipe out the memory of any traumatic event. At almost the same moment in humanity s broad history, mankind discovered the means for bringing about its utter downfall ... and the ability to forget it ever happened.
In Shift, the second volume of the New York Times best-selling Silo trilogy, Hugh Howey goes back to show the first days of the Silo, and the beginning of the end.
Brilliantly written ... Howey creates a starkly believable and terrifying apocalypse. More and more layers of the dystopian world are unveiled, enticingly paving the way for the sequel. Sunday Express
