It was nearly winter when the ship arrived. Pete Farnam never knew if the timing had been planned that way or not. It might have been coincidence that it came just when the colony was predicting its first real bumper crop of all time. When it was all over, Pete and Mario and the rest tried to figure it out, but none of them ever knew for sure just what had happened back on Earth, or when it had actually happened. There was too little information to go on, and practically none that they could trust. All Pete Farnam really knew, that day, was that this was the wrong year for a ship from Earth to land on Baron IV.

Alan E. Nourse (1928-1992) was an American science fiction writer and physician whose work frequently explored the intersection of science, medicine, and society. Writing during the mid-twentieth century, he contributed to a period in which science fiction increasingly examined not only technological possibilities but also their social and ethical implications.Nourse authored numerous novels and short stories, often drawing on his medical background to inform his portrayal of systems, institutions, and human behaviour. His writing is characterised by clarity of concept and an emphasis on the consequences of structured environments. Works such as Image of the Gods reflect his interest in the relationship between knowledge, belief, and human response within speculative settings.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A science fiction story of perception and belief, Image of the Gods examines the consequences of interpreting advanced phenomena through the framework of limited understanding.Set within a speculative environment shaped by technological and cultural disparity, the narrative explores how unfamiliar systems and capabilities may be perceived as supernatural or divine. As events unfold, the distinction between knowledge and belief becomes central, raising questions about interpretation, authority, and the limits of perception.Nourse develops the story through a focused scenario in which characters confront the implications of misinterpreted reality. The result is a work that reflects mid-twentieth-century science fiction's engagement with the relationship between science, culture, and human response to the unknown.
