A ship captain returns to a very different earth. A quite amusing religious satire, with the odd sport joke, too. A strange Earth religion has started, with priestesses holding the power. Other political systems do exist, including one that is very straitlaced and rejects this new, female based, sexual worship.

Wiccan\Radical Ecologist Must-have!

If you root for the monster in monster movies, this one's for you. I loved Commander Stagg's opponents in this "voyagers return from the stars to a strange future world" story. Of all the post apocalytic futures in sci-fi, this is one of the most palatable--a racier version of Robt. Graves' Watch the North Wind Rise. PJF can spin a terrific, fast reading tale! Take a ride with an old time writer who puts the modern genre stuff to shame.

Typical Phillip Jose Farmer, Incredible

Thrilling post-apocalyptic America at it's best. The new order thrown away science and it's ecology damaging side effects and gone back to mother earth. Imagine what happens when a starship lands after an 800 year voyage of exploration. Don't miss it
