JUDITH MOFFETT
HOLY GROUND TRILOGY, BOOK II
After the critical and popular success of The Ragged World, Judith Moffett returns to the future with this moving tale of the Hefn occupation of Earth and how it affects Earth’s people--two youngsters in particular, Pam Pruitt and Liam O’Hara, math-prodigy students at the Hefn Humphrey’s Bureau of Temporal Physics.
On vacation from the Bureau, Pam and Liam visit Hurt Hollow, a place on the Kentucky shore of the Ohio River once homesteaded by a landscape artist and his wife. Orrin and Hannah Hubbell had lived there in harmony with the Earth, gardening and fishing, raising goats and bees, doing without modern conveniences—a lifestyle much approved of by the Hefn. The tradition at the Hollow continues, and the teens are drawn into it.
The prospects of living peacefully seem distant for Pam and Liam, who must find peace both with the Hefn Directive and with themselves. But shattering events that befall them en route to Kentucky, and at Hurt Hollow itself, mirror the ways in which their bond with their alien teacher will ultimately avert a global disaster and drastically alter the course of their own lives.
Time, Like an Ever-Rolling Stream is a remarkable novel by a writer able to imagine all this and make us care about it.

“Moffett’s combination of harsh realism with visionary zeal addresses contemporary issues and personal struggles with compassion and insight.”
— Library Journal
“. . . an exceptional sequel to The Ragged World . . . Fine insights on alien/human understanding permeate a compelling, dramatic and realistic story.”
— Bookwatch (San Francisco)
“Thanks to some adroitly handled introductory matter, the new book stands on its own as a narrative. More to the point, it breaks new ground in the successful integration of science fiction and the mainstream novel.”
— Gerald Jonas, The New York Times Book Review
“Pam Pruitt is a real person. Her problems are real ones. Moffett’s picture of the Ohio Valley is so lovingly realized that it leaps off the page, dense, pungent, textured. The Hefn are real, and strange.”
— Fantasy & Science Fiction
“Keenly and lovingly observed reality, in place, event, and character, to a degree rarely found in fantasy or SF . . . This is good work.”
