This was a really pleasant surprise: a reasonably-hard SF story about the descendants of planet colonizers after their technological society has fallen, and what it means for human beings when the struggle for survival must take precedence over the striving for knowledge and greatness. I would have liked some of the things to be explained in more detail, but for a novella, it does the job well.
