I read "The Runner" as soon as it came out, and it was my first foray into non-Howey stories set in the world of WOOL.  I wasn't disappointed.From the compelling opening to the satisfying finish, Davies keeps the story moving.  I really enjoyed reading about brand new characters who live in a Silo and share much of the same challenges as those in WOOL, but with different specifics.  What was particularly powerful in this book was the emotional depth of the relationships between the characters.I'm not surprised that "The Runner" has taken off with readers and inspired other writers to jump in and play in Hugh Howey's universe.  There are as many potential tales as there are steps in the great stairway....Looking forward to the next book from Davies!
