The Worship of Mystery by J.R. MabryMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
An exciting, heartwarming, spiritually and philosophically expansive novel. I want a sequel! Chaplain Jun of the Temple of All Worlds is ready to retire, but instead is sent to a position on another planet, teaching the Chaplaincy Service. With little time to spare, he and Belle, a replacement social worker, are thrust into the midst of uproar: portions of a mine have collapsed and lives are lost, with many not yet accounted for. Jun and four brand-new students and Belle must exemplify compassion in the face of such grief. Then Jun discovers that there is also an indigenous species--aliens.
This first book in THE TEMPLE OF ALL WORLDS Series is a vivid exploration of the nature of humanity--and of aliens.
