In the not too distant future, Ken Malone, young but promising FBI agent, is given the most important and difficult assignment of his career: find a spy who is stealing information from the Ultra Top Absolute Secret project to develop a non-rocket space ship at Yucca Flats Labs in Nevada. But this is not a normal spy, this spy laughs at the FBI and all attempts to find him or her because they use an unknown new method to steal the information directly from the minds of the scientists. And then of course, there is the Sweet Little Old Lady who is immortal and the stunning nurse and the Las Vegas gangsters and ... well, you had better listen to the story to find out the details. His first problem: how do you find a telepath to catch the first telepath?
Meer oor die skrywer
Randall Garrett, born December 16, 1927, was a prolific American science fiction and fantasy author whose imaginative storytelling left an indelible mark on the genre. A master of the short story, Garrett's works often appeared in prominent pulp magazines of the mid-20th century, including "Astounding Science Fiction" and "Analog Science Fiction and Fact." His most celebrated creation, the "Lord Darcy" series, ingeniously blends alternate history with detective fiction, envisioning a world where magic and science coexist.Garrett's career was not without controversy. Known for his sharp wit and sometimes abrasive personality, he was a polarizing figure in the science fiction community. His outspoken views on politics and society often sparked heated debates, yet his ability to challenge conventional thinking endeared him to a generation of readers and writers seeking fresh perspectives.Garrett's influence on contemporary writers is profound. His innovative approach to genre-blending and world-building paved the way for authors like Neil Gaiman and George R.R. Martin. Moreover, his advocacy for the integration of scientific principles into storytelling inspired a more rigorous and imaginative approach to science fiction.Despite health challenges later in life, including a debilitating stroke, Garrett's legacy endures through his extensive body of work. His stories continue to captivate modern readers, offering a glimpse into the boundless possibilities of speculative fiction. Randall Garrett remains a towering figure whose contributions have shaped the landscape of modern science fiction and fantasy.
