What is arcing and why does it keep snapping the overhead LRT wires?

A year ago, my novelette, Arcing, came out on audiobook. In celebration, it's on sale from your favorite audiobook app! (Except one.)

Arcing is actually a parallel story to Worlds Divide. Reading Worlds Divide will give you a better understanding of the circumstances in Arcing (which starts and finishes later than Worlds Divide.) But you can get Arcing on sale now! (And read it after Worlds Divide.)
