A science fiction detective story set on a living floating city.
Long ago, before genetic work extended his life, Reg worked to build the massive city of Skyholme that now floats well above the clouds of Earth. Now, in his retirement, Reg is being asked to investigate a murder unlike any other: the city itself. Forces are at work, distant intelligences are moving against the city, and it’s only a matter of time before everyone around Reg will suffer if he can’t solve the crime.
This novella was originally a part of the award nominated Metatropolis series, edited by John Scalzi and Jay Lake. Now on sale for the first time ever!
