Synopsis

The Pattern Jugglers of planet Turquoise -- an alien entity that takes the form of floating organisms on the surface of a planet-wide sea. Turquoise Days is the story of Naqi Okpik, a human scientist who must come to terms with the mysteries of the Jugglers while dealing with an external threat to the planet -- a threat to the Jugglers themselves. But are the Pattern Jugglers conscious life forms, and can they protect themselves against this alien menace?

This novella can also be found in the anthologies The Year's Best Science Fiction: Twentieth Annual Collection (2003), and Best of the Best Volume 2: 20 Years of the Year's Best Short Science Fiction Novels (2007), both edited by Gardner Dozois. The story is included in the collection Diamond Dogs, Turquoise Days (2003).
