Finished The Hero of Ages by Brandon Sanderson. The climax and resolutions was really good, even on my 2nd re-read. Finally done with the first era! Wanted to jump right into next book to find out what happens to that one character, but next book is hundreds of years in the future.
Started Five on a Treasure Island by Enid Blyton. Got the series for the kid, he is already halfway through the book and wanted to talk to me about it, so reading it myself.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I have similar feelings. I like that Walker is a woman, this was a realistic change and something I think makes the relationship between Walker and Juliet get to a deeper level. I like the color, the atmosphere. Juliet’s Character in the books shines in interactions with different people. But because she is so introverted and work focused, we only get it in Silo 17 and in book 3. I liked the first season better though.
Tap for spoiler
The cuts are too fast. We switch between scenes too often. In season 2 I think having Lukas be shadow after he was send to the mines is unbelievable. I really enjoy to hate and love Sims. But is way of speaking, dialect is so off from the others, which makes it hard to believe since it is hinted and makes sense in the books that the Silos develop their own dialects. But English is not my first language so that could only be me. Will I watch season 3? Yes!
Have to agree on that, now that you mentioned! Sims kinda feels like he’s from another world, his dialect is too distinctive from the others. It would’ve been nice to see/hear more silo-specific language being used, dialects and idioms, the books only mention it a few times as well!
I just watched the latest episode and can’t wait to see how the next season turns out! IMDB says there should be a 4th season coming as well but it would be the last one.
There’s a lot of fanfic based on the Silo world and I hear some of it very good. Somebody had linked this list of popular Silo fanfic on Reddit, The Karma series as well as Silo 42 and Silo 49 were recommended!
