I had no idea what to expect when reading this...after finishing Dust, I wanted more. I'd been tempted to buy one of the other silo saga books but noticed the first story (The Sky Used to be Blue) was short and free so I figured I had nothing to lose....and I didn't :-). The first book was so promising I ordered the this collection immediately after finishing it. The author did a wonderful job of tying it into the rest of the world...after reading Shift there's simply no reason to NOT read this book.(Spoilers - if you didn't read Shift)I only had one complaint (other than wanting to know more about what happened in Karma's silo) it would be about the description of the secret room on the IT level seemed to differ from the description in Shift...I could accept that there could be differences that weren't considered important, but the described layout just confused me a bit. The lack of mirrors in Silo 2 was something I could deal with, though. I definitely remembered them in the other books (and one was there in Donald's visit to a neighboring silo)...however I figured they could have been temporarily removed when it caused folks to remember too much of what they lost.
