The Doors of the Universe (Children of the Star, Book Three)
by Sylvia EngdahlBook Three of the Children of the Star trilogy. Noren knew that his world was not as it should be -- it was wrong that only the Scholars, and their representatives the Technicians, could use metal tools and Machines. It was wrong that only they had access to the mysterious City, which even as a child he had longed to enter. Above all, it was wrong for the Scholars to have sole power over the distribution of knowledge. The High Law imposed these restrictions and many others, though the Prophecy declared that someday knowledge and Machines would be available to everyone. Noren, convicted in youth of heresy, had only recently come to believe in the Prophecy's fulfillment. And the more he learned of the grim truth about his people's deprivations, the less possible it seemed that their world could ever be changed. It would take more drastic steps than anyone had imagined to restore their rightful heritage.

by Samuel Cardeal Samira Duarte SantosDopo la fine del mondo, il pianeta è rinato, a partire da piccoli microrganismi fino alla formazione di creature complesse, come uomini e dinosauri. Nella sua nuova struttura organica, gli esseri umani sono diventati dipendenti dalla carne come alimento, e la ricercano nelle bestie, como loro chiamano quelli che noi, oggi, chiamiamo dinosauri. Rangel Connor è un soldato alla suaprima missione di caccia nel territorio delle bestie. Tuttavia, l'avanzata in cerca della preziosa carne viene interrotta a causa di un violento attacco da parte degli animali. Rangel resta indietro, ma, contro ogni aspettativa, non viene divorato dai mostri, bensì accolto. Al fianco dei dinosauri, Rangel scoprirà il reale valore di un'amicizia e quanto deturpata e vile possa essere la mente umana con le sue manie di superiorità. Una storia di uomini, dinosauri e sulla vera natura dell'homo sapiens.
