The Archaeology of Falling Worlds

By Megan Chee

Cyberpunk 2077 meets Studio Ghibli in The Archaeology of Falling Worlds, a cyberpunk sci-fi epic exploring class inequality and migration in a multiverse on the brink of extinction.

In a dying multiverse, survival demands sacrifice.

Starga is a vibrant city built with technology and magic from a thousand unreachable worlds. Here, people and creatures from across the universe fall from the sky with no memory of their past. What lies beyond Starga is a mystery, because nobody is able to leave. And with more beings arriving every year, its resources are at a tipping point.

Frey has a knack for turning abandoned debris into underground treasure, but she's eager to rise above her life with a Lower District gang. When they coerce her into one last job in exchange for her freedom, she can't say no. In the desert wastelands that surround Starga, Frey collides with Alasar, a naive archaeologist, and the two make a shocking discovery: the newly fallen Silver, a sentient, shape-shifting worm whose lost memories have the power to change their entire world. Now they must wrestle with an impossible calculus: protect Starga at any cost? Or risk everything they've ever known for an uncertain future?

The Archaeology of Falling Worlds is a compelling exploration of what makes an imperfect world worth saving--and a brilliant new vision of sanctuary and survival on an intergalactic scale.
