I found a new article posted just now on Slate.com that dissects Hugh Howey's Wool series in some detail. One part I liked was,
"Howey's self-publishing Cinderella story is so compelling that it often becomes the media story about Wool. But way more fascinating than that is the way the world of Wool reflects our own world-and how Howey's interactions with readers are overturning the traditional relationship between an author, his creations, and his audience."
