About This Book

A young man awakens with no memory on a tiny meteor among Saturn’s rings and discovers a low-gravity world where the air affects consciousness, metallic rocks and bluish vegetation dot a sharply curved surface, and walking sends him floating into space. He adopts the name Nemo and soon meets a golden-haired girl called Nona; together they learn that the meteor’s environment contains breathable water, combustible minerals, and an alien marine species dwelling in its depths. The narrative follows their struggle to survive, adapt to strange physical laws, and encounter the bizarre Marinoid people beneath the water while living a simple, primitive existence.
