Healer

Joe Fernwright is a pot-healer, a repairer of ceramics, in a drably utilitarian future where such skills have little value. But the Glimmung is offering Joe a way out of his isolated, meaningless life. It wants him to travel to Plowman's Planet to work on a project there with dozens of other odd creatures. And it may not be a bad idea to do what the Glimmung wants. After all, it is prepared to pay well, it could be divine and, like so many other gods, it has a very bad temper...
Galactic Pot-Healer blends quixotic adventure and deliciously paranoid theology in a uniquely imaginative and metaphysical quest.
