I completely agree that the Wool series is an amazing set of books from an Indie author. Wool 6 will be out soon and I look forward to more from this author.

As an aside, Hugh finally was convinced to get an agent who in turn shopped his work to a number of traditional publishers. The results were amusing to say the least.
