Four from Planet 5
Four from Planet 5 | Murray Leinster
2 posts
The strange visitors had landed. Why had they come, and what unknown terror would they bring upon our world? The radio and television stations of the world carried the short, terrifying statement: The visitors were telepaths. These children from another time, another planet, were about to read human minds. They were utterly invincible. And they were infinitely dreaded... In the Pentagon and the Kremlin, leaders were grim with the awareness that all military secrets would be exposed...The overlords of the underworld realized the children could smash their most profitable rackets...And even ordinary citizens shuddered at the prospect of their shabby sins being found out. So four small children came to be hated by the entire world. A whole civilization wanted them dead.

I am posting one book per day from my extensive, and ever growing, TBR shelves. Some are new and some are old, some were gifts, and some I don't remember why I bought them.

RamsFan1963 @Ruthiella @Gissy @Leftcoastzen The cover and the synopsis of this book give me definite The Midwich Cuckoos vibe. If you've seen the movie Village of the Damned you'll know what I mean. 4mo

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description or reason for wanting to read the book. Some are old and some will be new. Don't judge me - I have a lot of books.

p.s. Murray Leinster is one of my favorite "forgotten" sci-fi authors.

Leftcoastzen Wow great vintage book, loving that cover! 3y
