The title Virga is a "world" that consists of endless sky...nearly. It's actually a 3000-mile wide fullerene balloon filled with air, complete with artificial fusion-powered "suns", clouds, and a smattering of asteroids-- and no gravity. The series focuses on the steam-punk society that lives inside. * Sun of Suns * Queen of Candesce * Pirate Sun * The Sunless Countries * Permanence: A stand-alone novel in a separate universe. Explores the idea of a space-faring civilization that uses slower-than-light "Cyclers" - vast trade/cargo ships that slingshot between stars in a continous loop.
