Slimy Things Did Crawl (Halfway to Better 1)

by Susan Kaye Quinn

Overview

SHORT STORY: At the bottom of the sea, a trawler cleans mineral-rich nodules of microplastics, our pollution having reached even the most remote locations, when the crew finds something that shouldn't be possible.

Slimy Things Did Crawl is one of six short solarpunk stories in the Halfway to Better collection.

If you enjoyed the optimistic climate solutions in Kim Stanley Robinson's Ministry for the Future or the cozy cooperative future in Becky Chambers' Monk and Robot series, you will enjoy Halfway to Better.
