The Neanderthal Parallax
The Neanderthal Parallax is a trilogy of novels by Robert J. Sawyer published by Tor. It depicts the effects of the opening of a connection between two versions of Earth in different parallel universes: the world familiar to the reader, and another where Neanderthals became the dominant intelligent hominid. The societal, spiritual and technological differences between the two worlds form the focus of the story.
The trilogy's volumes are titled ''Hominids'' (published 2002), ''Humans'' (2003), and ''Hybrids'' (2003). ''Hominids'' first appeared as a serial in ''Analog Science Fiction'', won the 2003 Hugo Award for Best Novel,〔 and was nominated for the John W. Campbell Award the same year;〔 ''Humans'' was a 2004 Hugo Award finalist.〔〔
The initial contact between the two worlds takes place at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory in Sudbury, Ontario, which is also the location of a scientific research facility in the Neanderthal world.
==Terminology==
As the books unfold, both species agree to use the Neanderthal terms to distinguish between them; thus a ''gliksin'' is a member of ''Homo sapiens'', and a ''barast'' is of ''Homo neanderthalensis''. ''Human'' refers to either species.
