‘Silo’ Fans Need These 8 Brilliant Literary Sci-Fi Book Series Between Episodes
This Collider feature offers Silo fans a curated list of literary science fiction book series to read while waiting for new episodes of the Apple TV show, which returned for its third season on 3 July 2026. It draws a parallel between Silo's origins in Hugh Howey's Wool trilogy and other rich, immersive sci-fi book series that offer similarly expansive fictional worlds to explore between episodes.
The list highlights eight series spanning varied sub-genres, including Adrian Tchaikovsky's four-book "Children of Time" saga, which follows parallel narratives of human survivors and an evolving spider civilisation on a terraformed exoplanet, and Yoko Tawada's "Scattered All Over the Earth" trilogy, set in a near-future world reshaped by climate crisis. Other entries reportedly cover themes such as rogue AI conflict and alternate-present geopolitics, reflecting the breadth of the genre.
