Imagine that humanity finally started World War 3 and the majority of the Earth fell into nuclear ruin. Now imagine a world where the last vestiges of humanity are living in air ships that float around the world above the nuclear ravaged world below for generations until only two ships remain.

What starts out as a story about a boy trying to thwart his mother's suitor with a ... Continue Reading...
