Ice Monarch: Echovisions

By Michèle Laframboise

Butterfly wings over the Arctic 

A human transplanted inside a giant monarch butterfly body roams an Earth scarred by climatic changes. He checks out pockets of survivors and reports for his industrial masters, who live in lavish palaces rolling over the Arctic synthetic ice. The monarch is undestructible, as long as he keep to the rarefied altitudes. But can he stay indifferent to the suffering going on under his wings? 

A compelling ecological tale by multiple awards-winning Canadian SF author Michèle Laframboise.
