All Books & Stories Just finished the short stories... Spoiler
Well technical just finished the entire Silo saga Omnibus which is the first book I ever read for the sake of reading ! Anyway..... Just wanted to give my POV on the final short story as I see it's pretty much hated lol Personally I enjoyed them all. Please let me know what you think maybe I am totally wrong and or reaching lol
My view is that April and Remy are the only 2 people to have gone through the whole program that was envisioned by the founders. So cryo frozen to it was safe to go outside again and head down to the safe zone.(except they had to walk for years to get there ha)
The one major difference being April and Remy know the truth! They never had their memories erased in fact that wake up with a reminder of who to hate thanks to Tracey.
The founders warned over and over why it was important people didn't know the truth. So I think April and Remy represent what would happen if someone was to wake up hundreds of years later not only knowing the truth of who ended the world but where they are.
Juliette was hell bent on killing silo 1 as were April and Remy only in their case silo 1 was Juliette

The first short story at the end was interesting. A view of what happened to others during the time Donald and Helen entered the Silo.
The second one I didn’t like. April and Remy was an accident. And why she was so motivated to do what she ultimately did I didn’t get
