[edit] Review by [User:Pastafarian Nights]

  • Coverage and factuality: 1
  • Writing style: 9
  • Structure: 8
  • Aesthetics: 6
  • Overall: 5

This article is well-written. I know nothing about the topic, having never read the book, and I found the information well-presented, easy to read, and interesting. Writing a concise synopsis of a complicated story is not easy; it was admirably done here.

Unfortunately, the article has no references. Admittedly, most of the information is a straight description of the book itself, but there are a few statements in the lead that need citations. (Re: rarity of 1950s SF touching on Catholic themes, & the reaction of Catholics to A Case of Conscience upon publication.) The ISBN should also be added.
