My rating: 5 of 5 stars


A book I have read and reread several times over the years and each time, i find it as beautiful as before: human civilizations spread across a hundred light years, and most of these humans with lifespans of around 600 or so years. Except for the humans of Earth, and except for the humans of Mollan. Earth: three score and ten, and Mollan, about 5000 years. What did we do wrong? Why us? The discovery of what happened, and the consequences, told in the stories of Gretana, a Mollanian observer, and Denny, a sick and wheelchair-bound Terran*, and Lorrest, a Mollanian determined to do what is right, and Vekrynn, who has been collecting data on Earth for centuries. History will be changed when these people encounter each other.



*Terran: for the non-SF minded, a term used for humans of Earth, from Terra, based on the Latin word for Earth.
