A.C. Wise - Locus Magazine

Maragi learns the ropes as a mast «monkey» aboard her father’s heavily-mortgaged airship, climbing its glacial hull six thousands meters over the poisoned Earth’s surface. She hopes to navigate the endless sky, humanity’s last refuge, but must face the scorn of crewmen who resent her presence. Little do they know the worse fate waiting a motherless girl in the straight-laced, rigid Cloud society. Then, a fragile secret left by clandestine passengers forces a hard choice on her. Is saving it worth losing everything she cares about?

A dystopian, aero-punk SF novella by multi-award winning author Michèle Laframboise.
