Eifelheim

The story's blend of historical detail and alien contact feels seamless and unique. I'm curious about what sparked the idea to set this story in 14th-century Germany and explore such themes.

The characters' struggles with faith and understanding the alien visitors were so layered. It made me think about how different worlds might grapple with similar existential questions.

The shifts between the medieval past and the modern present added depth but also complexity. Wondering if this was planned from the start or evolved during writing.
