About the Book
|
The Bishop realized that sooner or later we’d be able to contact, and perhaps communicate with other civilizations throughout our Milky Way galaxy. His vision, his Mission, was for us to prepare for that time. If it turned out that we could actually communicate with aliens from other worlds, his burning question, “Are we alone?” would be answered with that first contact. But, that’s not all he wanted to know.
Follow this intriguing journey through the decades of debate and discovery the Mission demanded. From ecumenical views to space exploration technology, from the practical to the fanciful; Collins tells his tale with words that will evoke and provoke.

Reviews

"While I have yet to post my official review of this book, I implore you to buy this book and read it. I found it thoroughly satisfying. It's a must read!
I really enjoyed it. Despite being an atheist, I am still intrigued by religion and it's influences on society. While I am fully aware of all of the technologies in the book (I am a voracious reader of science and nature articles), I enjoyed how they were presented in the story. Your writing style is very fluid and descriptive. I read it in one sitting. Honestly, I wish it were a full novel, and feel it would make a great movie. The characters were developed well given the size of the book, but you could do so much more with them. It had a "Contact" vibe to it (one of my favorite movies). I really enjoyed it."

About the Author |
|
This is William Collins’ second book. His first, a collection of short stories, Conversation >< Contemplation, Quick reads for busy people, encourages pondering and reflection. He developed his writing style and communication skills in the corporate atmosphere where clearly composed memos and correspondence ruled. He admits to writing fiction without any significant regard for effortless comprehension. Yet, his work flows breezily, and with easily imagined scenarios. |
