SHORT STORY: At the bottom of the sea, a trawler crawls across an abyssal plain, carefully cleaning microplastics off the ancient mineral-rich nodules, when the crew finds something that shouldn’t be possible.
Slimy Things Did Crawl is one of six short solarpunk stories in the Halfway to Better collection.
