New story out, as part of the Winter 2024 edition of New Maps Magazine:

You may recall that The Library of the Ratio is the one set in Central Otago, focussing on the preservation of knowledge in a deindustrial environment. So this one is uncharacteristically local. It’s also notable for being the odd one out of the five deindustrial stories I have had published – the other four have either looked at the immediate social-political ramifications of resource-loss, or else looked at how a far-future civilisation might find our technology terrifying. The Library of the Ratio is neither.
