Garden City, NY: Doubleday & Company, 1973. Book Club (BCE/BOMC). Hardcover. Very Good/Fair. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. Full brown cloth. Light rubbing to spine ends and corners, small white stains to spine, wear and some light damp staining to fore edge of rear board. Dust jacket is severely chipped to fore edge at rear cover, smaller chips to spine ends, a few stains to spine, short tear to head of front cover. The year is 2035. For over 40 years the Ecologists have had their way and the killing by man of any living thing has been outlawed. Insects, fish, plants, and animals abound, in fact run rampant, revered by all by a few such as Dominick Priest. Priest still believes in the primacy of man. In this adventure story of the future, D. Keith Mano demonstrates once again his concern as a novelist with the situation about to arise, the problem as yet unforeseen, the solution not yet quite arrived at.

And the compulsion the generals applied to get him to probe the mind of the thing called Child had to be the greatest. Because Child was anything but that.
