Review

Happily, the authors represented in this anthology have avoided (these) pitfalls. Their brief was to create stories with a religious theme, in which religion is as central to the story and presented as the foundation factor it represents for humankind -- whether the religion is Judeo-Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu, Pagan, or something else -- stories in which the religious element is just as central as the science or magic is in good speculative fiction of the science fiction or fantasty persuasion. -- Katherine Kurtz. -- Publisher Comments
