About this book

In December 2059, Emilio Sandoz, a Jesuit priest, is released from a Roman hospital as the sole survivor of the Society of Jesus's mission to Rakhat. The Jesuits had sent scientists to meet the planet's intelligent life, intending to learn rather than convert.

First contact, which begins with a small mistake, leaves Sandoz questioning the existence of God.
