Produktbeschreibung

Winner, StoneWall Society Pride in the Arts Award.

In an alternate reality, the Iroquois scientist Taldra questions her world's ban on space travel and free speech, but that world funds her research. One of her sons becomes trapped on the other side of a time portal while the other loses himself to the religious cult Degranon. Can they find their way back to each other before the Degrans destroy Valchondria?
