8: An Unnatural Phenomenon

Under Captain Mercer's command, the Trelawney glided carefully to a stop beside the floating city that gently fell and rose on the ocean in sedate rhythm. I tried to imagine a life permanently afloat, the diet of the inhabitants, how they found fresh water, what kind of community they would have after thousands of years

Bravo! Author! My favourite chapter in the story so far, with its strange turn of events. Fascinating idea of a kind of watery utopia, with additions of both people and building material from different times in history.

And what the dickens were they doing with Dickens, in the middle of the sea?! :-)

Will there be lip-locking and warm embrac3s, I wonder, between Dr Grange and Miss Campbell in a future chapter?

Ooh, maybe. Please don't take anything for granted, though - things may get a little rocky for the newly romantic Solomon Grange before he gets any, er, action.
