The Puppet Masters
The Puppet Masters | Robert A. Heinlein
8 posts | 22 read | 4 to read
Now in Mass Market. An Epic Battle Against Mind-Controlling Alien Invaders as Only Robert A. Heinlein, the Best-Selling Grand Master of Science Fiction, Could Tell It. One of the most influential writers in American literature. The New York Times Book Review. First came the news that a flying saucer had landed in Iowa. Then came the announcement that the whole thing was a hoax. End of story. Case closed. Except that two agents of the most secret intelligence agency in the U.S. government were on the scene and disappeared without reporting in. And four more agents who were sent in also disappeared. So the head of the agency and his two top agents went in and managed to get out with their discovery: an invasion is underway by slug-like aliens who can touch a human and completely control his or her mind. What the humans know, they know. What the slugs want, no matter what, the human will do. And most of Iowa is already under their control. Sam Cavanaugh was one of the agents who discovered the truth. Unfortunately, that was just before he was taken over by one of the aliens and began working for the invaders, with no will of his own. And he has just learned that a high official in the Treasury Department is now under control of the aliens. Since the Treasury Department includes the Secret Service, which safeguards the President of the United States, control of the entire nation is near at hand .

Just finished. It was a great book regarding how authority screws us over. It wasn't as good as some other Sci-fi horror classics that fit the same tone, but it is a book that all lovers of the genre should read.

The price of freedom is the willingness to do sudden battle. Anywhere. Anytime.

Almost finished. I've enjoyed parts of the book, however, after reading 'The Body Snatchers' this one is simply lacking. Still, this is a good book that I would recommend.

Almost finished with this book, I appreciate it for what it is and I like the creatures, characters, and concept, but the 'Body Snatchers' was better. Now, that I have made that confession, I will admit, this isn't a bad book.
