'Larry Niven has ideas the size of planets' TIME OUT

Product Description
Larry Greenberg's telepathic tendencies had been trained and developed to a critical level. The trouble was that if these psychic interchanges were strong enough, a man could end up not knowing who he really was. But when Larry's mind is taken over by an alien force, he has to fight to retain his sanity - and divert a disaster that threatens all mankind. And when Larry's mind is taken over by a sinister alien force, he has to fight to retain his sanity - and divert a disaster that threatens all mankind...

3.0 out of 5 stars Telepaths, hostile EeTees, worlds battling, 24 Jun 2001
By A Customer
A good specimen of its time in 60's, a collection of many SF-type impossibilities in a single book. A telepath awakens two-billion-years dormant hostile alien, and so starts the inter-species conflict of Wellsian proportions. The book represents boldly its time-niche and genre.
