Sixty kilometres up in the dangerous sky of Venus, the floating cities of Sark and Temmis drift tenuously in a yellow dusk. This series tells the story of their troubled relationship. Part action fantasy, part political metaphor, they explore what it means to be free, and what the abuse of power can do to a small society. It is the coming-of-age story of an unlikely hero, a rebellious young cat-human named Luma. As both the oppressive robot regime ruling her people and the weather systems of Venus begin to collapse, Luma must assemble a team of misfits to start a rebellion and save the people. Lovers of hard science will not be disappointed, while the immersive world created around these fictive Venusian colonies makes for a more than satisfying read. The author grew up under apartheid, and the text is partly a meditation on that futile and destructive system.
