About This Book

The Convert--Science Fiction Short Story. (4,700 words)

When one of his congregation wants to marry an alien who is more flora than fauna, what's a priest to do??

FIVE STARS! In Susanne Marie Knight’s ‘The Convert,’ Father Wren has an equally awesome decision to make. He’s the only priest on the Ophiuchi 4 colony and must decide the marital fate of Chloe and Ping. She’s a deaf human; he’s a telepathic tree.”--Scribes World Reviews

One of the top 7 in LEAPS OF FAITH: “The Convert”, by Susanne Marie Knight, is an interesting tale about an indigenous alien who wishes to marry a human colonist to his planet. In this tale a priest must decide if he has the right under God to marry this alien to a human. He goes through a lot of psychological struggle, but when he hears the story from the alien, he begins to look at the situation with his heart. Also included in this story is how abusive we can be, simply because we don’t understand, or do not seem to have the capacity to understand things that do not fit into our little spectrum of understanding. A wonderful story that is beautifully told.--Christian Science Review.

“Highly Recommended!--Dog-eared Webzine
