Vague Synopsis Thingie
A duology (possibly trilogy) about a science fiction/fantasy world that is divided between two classes; the angel-like top-dwellers who live in the sky, and the poor working bottom-dwellers who live on the ground. Both of these are controlled by Mademoiselle, the empress of the two and a top-dweller. The first book is the story of Iris and Gen. Gen was a top-dweller who fell when she was a child and was adopted by Iris’s family. The two became close immediately and they grew up side by side learning how to craft the top-dweller’s treasured wing-like mechanisms. Years later, their father is killed at a strike in an act of police brutality, and the two girls have to flee. They decide to join the rebellion and strike back against the people that oppressed them and killed their father. There, Gen begins to discover more and more about her hidden past, while Iris falls head over heels for Damien, an ex-member of Mlle.'s police force who has joined the rebellion. What happens next? Who knows? (I sure know I don't!)
