Part two of To Open the Sky.

By 2095, the Vorster religion has become a dominant force on Earth, offering people real hope for actual immortality, not a vision of a supernatural afterlife. And like many other successful religions, it's spawned its own kind of heresy. Christopher Mondschein is an ambitious acolyte in the Vorster church who finds himself an unwitting pawn in the struggle between the establishment and a herectic splinter group calling themselves the Brotherhood of Transcendent Harmony.
