Description:
"Michael O'Brien is a superior spiritual storyteller worthy to join the ranks of C.S. Lewis, Flannery O'Connor, Graham Greene, and Evelyn Waugh." -- Peter Kreeft , Ph.D., Boston College; Author, I Burned for Your Peace "Some sci-fi novels are scientism fiction, worshiping science. Others are science friction , where high tech makes humans lowly. Voyage to Alpha Centauri , though, neither creates a new god nor blames science for our sins. Michael O'Brien shows us the battle that ensues and its sensational result as he skillfully portrays a clash of world views without end, amen." -- Marvin Olasky , Editor-in-Chief, World magazine "Ingenious, expansive, and enduringly wise, Voyage to Alpha Centauri is a tour de force of storytelling and moral imagination - sparkling in its humanity, rich in its embroidery, and chilling in its plausibility. It is a parable of an age that could easily become our own, with its concomitant wonders and dangers, an exploration of the most sublime heights and of the greatest depths of human possibility, and a thought-provoking meditation on the ethical limits of knowledge. Michael O'Brien has given us a literary treasure and a deeply satisfying read." -- Corban Addison , Author, A Walk across the Sun
