A review by ghostmuppet
Beneath Ceaseless Skies Issue #225 by Caroline M. Yoachim, A.T. Greenblatt, Scott H. Andrews
3.0
This has been nominated for a 2018 Hugo. It is freely available to read/listen from http://www.beneath-ceaseless-skies.com/stories/carnival-nine/.
A short story about wind-up people. They have a number of turns based on their spring, and the more they have, the more they can do. Zee has a lot, and can do a lot, but they do run out. The maker then winds them back up.
This is a life journey, from child, to adult, to old age.
Interesting take, but for me was little lacking. Maybe if this was expanded upon it would have more enjoyable.
