Simone is one of the Glitterati, the elite living lives of luxury and leisure. Slave to the ever-changing tides – and brutal judgements - of fashion, he is immaculate. To be anything else is to be unfashionable, and no one wants to be unfashionable, or even worse, ugly…When Simone accidentally starts a new fashion with a nosebleed at a party, another Glitterati takes the credit. Soon their rivalry threatens to raze their opulent utopia to the ground, as no one knows how to be vicious like the beautiful ones. Enter a world of the most fantastic costumes, grand palaces in the sky, the grandest parties known to mankind and the unbreakable rules of how to eat ice cream. A fabulous dystopian fable about fashion, family and the feckless billionaire class.

In this gripping sci-fi adventure, Rochelle awakens from cryostasis on the deserted colony ship Calypso, now a floating forest. As she navigates the aftermath of a war between engineers and botanists, she discovers her pivotal role in determining the fate of their competing utopias. A tale of survival and evolution unfolds.

Set in mirrored worlds, this science fantasy follows two cousins navigating the stark contrasts between a lush summer city and a harsh winter wasteland. Their journey explores themes of family bonds and the struggle for connection amidst contrasting environments. With emotional depth and vivid imagery, the story appeals to fans of unique narratives that blend fantasy with profound relationships, reminiscent of works like Every Heart a Doorway and This is How You Lose the Time War.
