The Doors of the Universe

Children of the Star #3 / 3
by Sylvia Engdahl
The Doors of the Universe (Children of the Star #3) by Sylvia Engdahl
Unrated

Children of the Star trilogy, Book Three. Noren had found faith in the Prophecy’s fulfillment in the face of overwhelming odds. Yet the more he learned of the grim truth about his people's situation, the less possible it seemed that their world could ever be changed. It would take more drastic steps than anyone imagined to restore their rightful heritage — and he alone could do what was needed.

This is the third book of the Children of the Star trilogy. It is preceded by This Star Shall Abide (issued in the UK under the title Heritage of the Star) and Beyond the Tomorrow Mountains. These books were originally published in hardcover by Atheneum as Young Adult fiction, although unlike This Star Shall Abide, this one is rarely of interest to readers below high school age. In 2000 the entire trilogy was republished as adult science fiction in one volume under the title Children of the Star.
