This was an excellent journey through past, present and a future vision of a post-apocalyptic utopia where technology blends into the background of a religious society. I enjoyed that this novel brought the Maya (who are very much still with us) to center stage. The stories characters in each millenium felt compelling and true. I was propelled through each triad of chapters wanting to know how it would all stich together in space and time. I was not disappointed.
