Watchstar
A solitary young woman in a telepathic society must protect an outsider while preparing for a dangerous coming-of-age ordeal. A thoughtfully written exploration of consciousness, morality, and cultural contact—though its philosophical interests didn't entirely align with mine.
Mindbond
Kor and Dannoc spend an exhausting amount of time discussing their magical bond, their feelings, and their feelings about each other's feelings. The plot barely registers, but the increasingly suggestive love triangle kept me reading for entirely undignified reasons.
Missing Man
A kindhearted telepath with learning disabilities joins a futuristic rescue squad. George is wonderful, the premise is fascinating, and the increasingly disconnected plots turn a promising collection of ideas into a frustrating mess.
Daughters of Earth
Three vintage science-fiction stories, one painfully misogynistic and two extraordinary. An intimate multigenerational history of women exploring space and a telepathic encounter between a stranded child and an alien mother make this collection well worth reading.
Psion
A street-hardened telepath with an attitude problem, a narrative that summarizes its own best moments, and enough ellipses to finally make me put the book down.
