Updraft by Fran Wilde

DNF @ 63%. I kept chugging along, expecting this to get more interesting as I learned more about the world, the characters, etc., but it just didn't. The main character was lifeless and the plot was so hidden beneath the world-building that I couldn't decipher the two.

Basically, this is a world where humungous towers made of bone grow out of the Earth (?). The bones have been growing for so long that the surface of the world is no longer visible beneath the cloud cover, and the society uses mechanical wings to navigate between the towers and trade, etc.

SUCH an interesting, different idea, and I know I would have loved it if I could have connected to any of the characters.
