PLOT OUTLINE:
Over the centuries, one small town in Germany has disappeared
and never been resettled. Tom, a historian, and his theoretical
physicist girlfriend Sharon, become interested. By all logic,
the town should have survived. What's so special about Eifelheim?
Father Dietrich is the village priest of Eifelheim, in the year 1348,
when the Black Death is gathering strength but is still not nearby.
Dietrich is an educated man, and to his astonishment becomes the
first contact person between humanity and an alien race from a
distant star, when their ship crashes in the nearby forest. It is a
time of wonders, in the shadow of the plague. Flynn gives us the full
richness and strangeness of medieval life, as well as some terrific
aliens.
Tom and Sharon, and Father Deitrich have a strange destiny of tragedy
and triumph in Eifelheim, the brilliant science fiction novel by
Michael Flynn.
