After the sea levels rise and the world ends, Martha and other survivors are stuck on a giant killer jellyfish, drifting off shore -- if boredom does not kill them, maybe their escape attempts will.

The biggest problem with being trapped on a killer jellyfish isn't what you'd expect... YOu get over the fear of death (becuase you start looking forward to it) and the smell of fish (becuase it quickly becomes your breakfast, lunch, and dinner). Boredom is an issue, sure, but it's not the main one; the biggest problem is not being able to get away from everyone. Martha has been stuck on the back of the Jellyfish for a long time. She and everyone else living there don't know how exactly they got there or how long they've been there or where they're going -- they just remember that something traumatic happened. And they can't escape. But now, the crew has finally had enough. they're going to escape the Jellyfish -- or die trying! (Which let's be real, probably means they're going to die).

Apocalyptic fiction.

Dystopian fiction.
