He has found no insoluble conflicts in his beliefs or his ethics . . . until he is sent to Lithia. There he comes upon a race of aliens who are admirable in every way except for their total reliance on cold reason; they are incapable of faith or belief.<br><br>Confronted with a profound scientific riddle and ethical quandary, Father Ruiz-Sanchez soon finds himself torn between the teachings of his faith, the teachings of his science, and the inner promptings of his humanity. There is only one solution: He must accept an ancient and unforgivable heresy—and risk the futures of both worlds . . .</p> Del Rey fbd-c0f7f1-e69a-0846-5a82-324e-33e6-835088 urn:uuid:fbd-c0f7f1-e69a-0846-5a82-324e-33e6-835088 9780345438355 61a855e2-eada-424e-8212-665f96d31cb8 eng sf_space
