About The Solarian Deep by David Deane Haskell
In the submerged mega-city of The Shallows, humanity hangs on by a thread of rusted steel and bio-engineering.
For Calistya, a “groundwalker” orphan living in the dripping dregs of the sector, there is only one escape: The Full-Gill Enhancement. It’s a brutal, irreversible surgery that trades legs for a fin and offers the ultimate freedom.
But freedom has a price Calistya can’t afford. Until she sees him… a boy gliding through the crushing black water with skin, scales, and eyes that glow with an ancient, bioluminescent intelligence.
