Kirinyaga: A Fable of Utopia by Mike Resnick
This is actually a collection of short stories that were woven together vas a novel. .
It's about an ultra orthodox African man who creates what he considers a Utopia on a new planet. His goal is to keep his society in a pure pre colonial form, but his rigidity increasingly causes problems as the years pass.
The protagonist isn't very sympathetic, but he is well written.
I enjoyed it.
