Proper Gauge by Hugh Howey
3.0
Not bad. The second entry in Hugh Howey's self-published Wool series. I've heard it described as the weakest of the original five novellas, and I agree that it isn't as good as the first, but I thought it was solid.
Proper Gauge moves the story along, as the Silo's mayor travels deep down into the Silo to meet with someone, and explores the strata of the Silo as she goes. The story is fine; it's a lot of space, though -- a hair under 80 pages -- for what it is.
I'm told this volume sets up the remainder, and I can see how that might be. Certainly worth continuing, but not as arresting as volume 1.
