When this book starts, the devoted Christian pastor Peter Leigh is about to release the hand of his wife, Bea (who rescued him from an erratic existence of drugs and alcohol), and embark on an evangelizing challenge at the height of the 21st century. The fate that awaits you, Oasis, is not on this Earth: to get there you have to get on a ship and make the Jump. One that takes you to a place where the air is felt even when it is still, where all food comes from a single root and where day and night are not like what we know. A place shared by natives who are kind and full of faith and perfectly trained colonizers who, in the exercise of their tasks, have learned to leave everything that makes them weak -human- behind.
