I wrote Updraft to stand on its own. There's a completed arc, as Coolcurry said. At the same time, there's more to tell about this world, and two more novels set here are coming in 2016 and 2017.

There are also short stories, including one published in Beneath Ceaseless Skies two weeks ago - Bent the Wing, Dark the Cloud http://www.beneath-ceaseless-skies.co...

Hope that helps!

Hey Fran (may I call you Fran?) First off, congratulations on your nomination for the Nebula Award! A great honour indeed! I am starting my annual (yet to be completed) Sci-Fi Award Reading Program. I was so captivated by the description of your book that I have chosen it to be the first to be read/reviewed. Looking forward to the read!

Fran Thank you, Michael! So great to hear!

What is the age level? I see YA but the publisher has it as Adult? Content good for Middle Grade?

Why does the main character, Kirit, always refer to her mother by name? It ruined their relationship for me. Why not say, "My mother tightened my straps." Or "I heard my mother's voice."
