About this ebook

The indigenous reptilian tribes of the planet Karimon lived a life of rich simplicity until the arrival of men from the stars lured them from the old ways with a new religion and promises of material wealth. This series of linked stories by the author of Paradise spans several generations and chronicles the destruction of a way of life in the name of civilization and progress. The parallel between this tale and the exploitation of the African continent is clear; so is the strength of this work's underlying message. Resnick is a polished storyteller who grows better with each outing. – from Library Journal
