Library Journal
A small colony of Quakers flourishes on the planet Pennterra under the benevolent tutelage of the alien ''hrossa'' until a second wave of humans threatens to disrupt the delicate balance between settlers and natives. Moffett's first novel approaches the subject of humanity's place in the universe with uniqueness and sensitivity. Highly recommended. JC
