Annotation

Lost race novel set inside the Earth. On the whole the society is presented positively and can be considered a technological utopia. The exception to the positive presentation is that dissidents are banished to a barren waste and almost certain death. At the end a natural disaster threatens to destroy the society, and the people choose to become Christians, divide their wealth equally, and return to the surface.
