Description

A threat written in the sky. A disabled girl no one takes seriously. A budding colony marked for death.

Blanche, a young girl walking in a cobbled-up exoskeleton, spends hours watching the strange clouds dancing in the Phoenix sky. She soon realizes that their coordinated figures signals a threat. Alas, the adults are too busy to listen to her. Even her sister Lupianne worries more about the oxygen plant’s dropping quotas and her similarly failing social life…

Then, as the cloud dances grow more complex and the temperatures rise to never-seen-before levels, the sisters must join forces with a despised artist to save their budding settlement from total eradication.

Clouds of Phoenix is a novel set in the Gayan Alliance universe of multi-award winning author Michèle Laframboise. If you like stories featuring a handicapped heroine and her much put-upon sister going against family and dangers, you’ll love this clever planet-opera.

Get Clouds of Phoenix to discover the strangest alien contact ever described in science fiction!
