Yeah, you're both on the right track. The version in the book is a large diameter pipe buried vertically with the bottom end sealed and of course reinforced by the ground underneath it. The propellant and stuff inside takes the path of least resistance, which is the opening at the top, then on to whatever is over it when activated. I think it was a tank in the story.
