Book: The Balloon Hunter

 Book: The Balloon Hunter

Author: Hugh Howey

Pages: 136


This is my 58th read of the year

What Amazon Says:
Shoot anything you don't understand.  That's been my motto, and it's kept me alive.  So when I saw something drifting about the fog, I lined it up in my sights and tookit out.  Only realized after that it was a balloon.  With a note attached.  Rita.  Who are you?  Where are you?  Hang tight. I'm coming.

This was a great novella.  It is written all in postcards, so I finished it in less than an hour.  I really like Hugh Howey (he is the author of the Silo series), so was exctied to find this book.  It is a clever and face paced dystopian and the ending still has been realing a bit.  Tried to even do a deep dive after I finished reading to see what other people thought.  There is a sequel, so of course I read that too.

Stars: 4.5
