MCE what the difference between this one and Floating Continent?
ccoa: All Worlds in the Sky are made up of floating continents, but not all floating continenets appear in worlds in the sky. A floating continent more often appears in a world that actually has a ground. This is a valid subtrope of World Shapes and has actually been around longer, it was only just recently split.
MCE: fair enough
onyhow: Does artificial constructs that is floating inside a no-land planet counts? Like Bespin?
ccoa: I believe so, from the sound of it, although it probably overlaps with Hollow World.
