Publisher's Summary

The Face of God is what every young saurian learns to call the immense, glowing object which fills the night sky on the far side of the world. Young Afsan is privileged, called to the distant Capital City to apprentice with Saleed the court astrologer. But when the time comes for Afsan to make his coming-of-age pilgrimage, to gaze upon the Face of God, his world is changed forever- for what he sees will test his faith...and may save his world from disaster!

Look out for the dinosaur with the telescope!

Even though there are no humans involved in this story, I developed a great fondness for some of the characters, and a great loathing for others.

Robert J. Sawyer has described a vast tapestry of society in this book, in environment, culture, physiology, and philosophy.

I could not wait for the remaining books in the series, so downloaded them all.
