Case of the Weird Carnivorous Sky
(2024)(The first book in the Deep Austin series)
A novel by Matthew Bey and Nicky Drayden
What if the sun doesn't come back?
Sarah, a single mom and avid grifter, can’t afford to take time off to save the world when the 2024 total solar eclipse goes horribly wrong and plunges Austin into eternal dimness. But as the city continues to get weirder and more dangerous under the blackened sun, she’s forced into action, recruiting pragmatic pedicabber Nook to track down the mysterious forces that have pushed Austin’s weirdness past the point of no return. Carnivorous clouds infest the sky as creatures from deep below emerge to cause mischief, and worse, Austinites are a little too quick to shrug it off as the new normal.
Sarah with her experience reading people, and Nook with her deep knowledge of the city streets, set their sights on bringing the old Austin back. They’re eager to get to the root of this evil until they realize the lengths and heights they’ll have to navigate to finally bring the sun back.
Genre: Urban Fantasy
