Armchair fiction presents extra large paperback editions of the best in classic science fiction novels. “Alien Minds” is an intrigue-filled novel of modern science fiction by E. Everett Evans. This fast moving tale is the sequel to Evans’ earlier sci-fi gem, “Man of Many Minds,” in which the character of George Hanlon was introduced to the world of science fiction. Hanlon, of course, was endowed with extraordinary mental powers and was a gifted secret operative for the Inter-Stellar Corps—reading minds and controlling them. Unfortunately, and understandably, alien minds were far more vexing. The Federation of Planets had invited Estrella to join as a full-fledged equal member.

Who was at the bottom of this propaganda war? That is what George Hanlon and his team needed to find out. “Alien Minds” is not a novel laden with heavy social significance or burdened by deep psychological study; it is, quite frankly, a novel of tomorrow written for the pure pleasure of entertaining the reader…
