Skysea

- Graphic Violence
Sailing in an ocean of air, Captain Grace Star had never seen land or water. Wood to build ships was rare, and the ballast to raise them even rarer.
More and more settlements were being lost to a heavy sky, and Grace needed to search for a myth.
Land.

Really cool setting, really well executed.
Reviewed at: Nine
The setting of the world is really cool; it's the perfect stage for an adventure, and it feels like you're actually going on one.
The crew is interesting, from the eccentric genius, the captain who's getting a little too old, and the wayward daughter. It's just an excellent set of characters, and a really good stage to put them on.
I was shocked by how well written the sailing is. I don't know nearly enough about sailing to know if it's all accurate, but it certainly sounds that way, and that's all that really matters to a layman.
Also, I might be a little biased here, but ships that sail in the sky are just plain cool. No one can convince me otherwise.
