On Blue's Waters is the start of a new major work by Gene Wolfe, the first of three volumes that will make up The Book of the Short Sun, which takes place in the years after Wolfe's four-volume Book of the Long Sun.
Horn, who was the narrator of the earlier work, now tells his own story. Though life is hard on the newly settled planet of Blue, Horn and his family have made a decent life for themselves. But Horn is the only one who can locate the great leader Silk - the central character of The Book of the Long Sun - and convince him to return to Blue and lead them to prosperity. So Horn sets sail in a small boat, on a long and difficult quest across the planet, trying to return to the Whorl - the giant interstellar ship still inhabited by the civilization that brought the settlers to Blue - in search of the now-legendary Patera Silk.
