Description
Set on a distant planet, this is a gripping tale about Sckarline, a colony that believes in appropriate technology adoption. A heavily armed clan arrives at the colony while it is being visited by off-world anthropologists. Sckarline's technological beliefs are put to the test when events spiral out of control. Told from the viewpoint of a young woman, she soon learns just how high the price of wisdom can be. This production is part of the publisher's Great Science Fiction Stories series. It is an unabridged reading by Vanessas Hart, 135 minutes, on two audio CDs.
