It was interesting to read this book which was one of the first to take the intersection of relgion and science fiction seriously. The beginning and ending were good, but dragged in the middle. Unfortunately some of the theology didn't make sense to me, but maybe that is because I am Protestand, not Catholic.

I would recommend reading this, but think The Sparrow is the better book on a similar topic.
