The sidewalk was as soft as a good bed. Malone lay curled on it, thinking about nothing at all. He was drifting off into a wonderful dream, and he didn't want to interrupt it. There was this girl, a beautiful girl, more wonderful than anything he had ever imagined, with big blue eyes and long blonde hair and a figure that made the average pin-up girl look like a man. And she had her soft white hand on his arm, and she was looking, up at him with trust and devotion and even adoration in her eyes, and her voice was the softest possible whisper of innocence and promise. "I'd love to go up to your apartment with you, Mr. Malone," she said. Malone smiled back at her, gently but with complete confidence. "Call me Ken," he said, noticing that he was seven feet tall and superbly muscled. He put his free hand on the girl's warm, soft shoulder and she wriggled with delight. "All right—Ken," she said. "You know, I've never met anyone like you before. I mean, you're so wonderful and everything

I have always wanted to read this book, as I have the third inthe series(SUPERMIND) and was thrilled to find it available, since the books have been long out of print. However, when I recieved the book, I was very dissapointed. It lokked as if someone had copied it on a typewriter and there were some pages missing. This is the first complaint I have ever had about Amazon, so I would say that their(amazons) track record as far as I am concerned has been excellent.

5.0 out of 5 stars The beautiful red Cadillac capable of 110 in any gear was a 1972 job.
Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2012
Kenneth j Malone of the FBI(that's right and from the queen's own FBI!) is back and late model red Cadillacs are being stolen, no suspects are ever seen and it's his job to figure out who, why and how. This is my favorite of the Psi-Power series it's well written and lot's of fun, I highly recommend it.
