Air, also known as Air: Or, Have Not Have, is a 2005 novel by Geoff Ryman. It won the British Science Fiction Association Award,[1] the James Tiptree, Jr. Award, and the Arthur C. Clarke Award,[2] and was on the short list for the Philip K. Dick Award in 2004,[3] the Nebula Award in 2005,[1] and the John W. Campbell Memorial Award in 2006.[2]
Ryman initially wrote a short story for The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction entitled "Have Not Have", which was included in the April 2001 edition[4] (later reprinted in the June 2014 issue of Clarkesworld Magazine[5]). This was expanded into a novel initially titled Air: Or, Have Not Have, and renamed to just Air in all editions since the first.
