First post on here had to be this:

I just watched the last episode of the first season of Silo on AppleTV+, and now I can't wait for season 2.

I'll keep from spoiling in the post, but be warned: there will probably be some in the comments!

So - did any of you see it yet? What do you think?

I'm thinking about starting the books. Just to get more from this universe.

I've looked into the books and it looks like each book is a different part of time, but I've also heard that this 1st season hasn't concluded the first book yet, is that true?

TV show hasn't quite caught up to the end of the first book yet, but it's close. And I think this is actually a better end for the first season than trying to match the book.

From what I could tell the books were released somewhat piecemeal, more like a bunch of little novellas, and were compiled into the three main books later.

Sort of.

It's been a few years since I read the books. Juliets story stays in the current time. The second main character starts in the past and slowly moves forward with each chapter. So his first chapter is X year, then the next is 3 months later, then a year, etc.

I don't actually remember exactly where the first book stopped, I thought it stopped with the reveal of the other silos. But I could certainly be wrong.
