Which, don't get me wrong, real world social issues are worth talking about, it's just...not necessarily something I'm going to learn much about writing, specfiction and creating stories from.

This is a fascinating specfiction novel. It explores the tension between Christian and pagan spirituality and asks if there's any possible overlap between the two, while contrasting the modern (based on Abrahamic faiths, science, capitalism) with the archaic (paganism & community). Great pacing.
