Plot introduction
The story concerns two worlds: the remnants of Earth, which has been destroyed, and Kronweld, which exists in another plane.
Reception
P. Schuyler Miller described Renaissance as "a strangely moving book, overcoming its lack of characterization and other traditional shortcomings by [its] drive and sweep of imagination."[1]
