Shelter. Book 2. Change

How it all started.
Year 2049, Washington, D.C. Senator Paul Turman invites young congressman Donald Keeney, an architect by education, to participate in a special project with the conditional name CLU (Complex for Localization and Disposal). The essence of the project is to create an underground storage facility for nuclear and toxic waste, and Donald is tasked with designing a bunker-shelter for the facility's staff.
Year 2052, Fulton County, Georgia. The project is completed. And as if as a culmination of its completion, America is struck by a series of nuclear attacks. Turman, Donald, and other selected representatives of American society move into the arranged shelter. Here, Keeney comes to realize the grim and terrifying truth: CLU was merely a facade for a worldwide operation called “Fifty,” whose goal is to preserve part of humanity in the event of a nuclear catastrophe. The number 50 denotes the number of constructed shelters, operated from the command center of shelter number 1.
What happened next? Year 2212 and onwards, up to 2345 inclusively. Shelters, one after another, break free from the main control. Rebellion follows rebellion, and each is brutally suppressed by the remote activation of poisonous gas.
How will all this end? Unknown.
In May 2023, the premiere of the first season of the television series “Shelter,” based on the novel by Howey (directed by Adam Bernstein and Morten Tyldum, screenplay by Graham Yost), took place. The series enjoyed immense popularity, received high ratings, and has already been extended for a second and third season.
