A moving, compulsive science fiction novel from one of the best writers
in the field. When the human settlers arrived on Hobbs Land, the native
intelligent species, the Owlbrit, were already almost extinct. Before
the last one died, a few years later, the humans had learned a little of
their language, their ideas and their religion. It seemed the natural
thing for the settlers to maintain the last Owlbrit temple, with the
strange statue that was its God.
When that God died -
disintegrating overnight - it seemed equally natural to start preparing
its replacement. Maire Manone came to Hobbs Land to escape the harsh
patriarchal religion of Voorstod, but Voorstod hasn't forgotten her - or
forgiven her. But the men who arrive on Hobbs Land to find and return
Maire to her homeland haven't taken Hobbs Land's God into account ...
