Synopsis

For a thousand years the men and women of Kensho have been evolving a way of living. a civilization that combines technology and spirit in a fashion that the visionaries of old Earth could hardly as the two essential parts of a healthy whole, rather than as deadly enemies out to destroy each other. In another century Kensho would have become invulnerable to the violence of Earth, but the starship, bristling with fearful weapons, an armada at its beck, is orbiting the planet now. Is there no alternative but to submit to the conquerors? Must the New Humanity return to the sad old ways of Earth? There is one possible way out--but if it fails, the people of Kensho will pay the price of annihilation.
