Sul brulicante formicaio che ? divenuta la Terra dopo il 2000, poco alla volta si impone una forma di religiosit? che trae le sue basi dottrinali dalla scienza. ? la religione di Noel Vorst, sono gli adoratori del Fuoco Blu dell’elettrone, sono le tonache azzurre dei monaci che manipolano i segreti dell’atomo. ? una religione, quella di Vorst, il cui scopo finale ? quello dell’immortalit?… fisica!
