The Way of Cross and Dragon is a science fiction short story by George R. R. Martin. It involves a far-future priest of the One True Interstellar Catholic Church of Earth and the Thousand Worlds (with similarities to the Roman Catholic hierarchy) investigating a sect that reveres Judas Iscariot. The story deals with the nature and limitations of religious faith.

The story originally appeared in the June 1979 issue of Omni.

It won the Hugo Award for Best Short Story in 1980.

I think about this story a lot. It's a powerful one. It speaks to the heart of Heresy. In fact, the first word of the story is, well, "Heresy."

If that isn't enough to get you reading it, keep in mind that you can listen to the audiobook in a single hour.

wolfmaid7, I think you and BC would like this one.
