DESCRIPTION: Birk Aaland is a political outcast
from Earth's tyranny, and has been living for years on a
planet inhabited solely by robots, ever since his ship
crashed here. Now another ship has crashed, and there is
again a single survivor -- a woman who's desperate to warn
Earth of an alien invasion. But Birk is perfectly happy with
his current exile -- until a twist of fate intervenes,
causing each of them to re-evaluate their lives and their
total existence.
"The story gains an emotionality
that justifies calling Goldin an artist, not merely a
writer."
