| Publisher Description: Told from the point of view of a historian tasked with summarizing the generative influences of the most seminal moment in the history of an entire inter-planetary species, this story explores the convoluted mechanics of what some might call the Divine Intent, and which others may call the workings of an indescribably complex clock-work universe.On another world, a civilization far evolved beyond us in intellect and science is nonetheless spiritually and socially stunted. Violence and war have been unknown to them until recently. They ask, "How can this be endured or dealt with, or even survived?" To find this answer they send an involuntary student to a distant world (Earth) inhabited by similar beings that seem inured and adapted to violence and war. If they don't learn the answer they are likely destined to disappear from existence. But is the student's answer more deadly than the threat itself? Inspired by a messianic vision she is viewed by some as being the manifestation of the Divine will, and by others as the very incarnation of all they feared and hoped to avoid. She is either the coming of hell on Galrote or perhaps the only salvation of both the conquering and the conquered. |
