Winner of the Hugo Award • The future of Earth will rely upon one man's sense of right and wrong. . . . Father Ruiz-Sanchez is a dedicated man-a priest who is also a scientist, and a scientist who is also a human being. He has found no insoluble conflicts in his beliefs or his ethics . . . until he is sent to Lithia.

There is only one solution: He must accept an ancient and unforgivable heresy-and risk the futures of both worlds . . .
