Teenager, Jerry Xiàng had always skimped on the safety rules of his family's dirigible farm, high in the skies of Venus. Today, bad luck caught up with Jerry in the form of a meteor. Suddenly, he found himself hurtling toward the scalding, hot surface of Earth's sister planet. What he learned on the way down could prove even more dangerous than his own hard fall.
