More Than Human

Theodore Sturgeon

From one of the greatest practitioners of science fiction comes a genre-bending novel that is as affectingly humane as it is speculatively daring.

There’s Lone, who can make a man blow his own brains out just by looking at him. There’s Janie, who moves things without touching them, and the unique power of the teleporting twins. There’s Baby, who invented an antigravity engine while still in the cradle, and Gerry, who has everything it takes to run the world – except for a conscience. Separately, they are talented freaks. Together they compose a single organism that may represent the next step in evolution. As the protagonist of More Than Human struggle to find out whether they are meant to help humanity or destroy it, Theodore Sturgeon explores the questions of power and morality, individuality and belonging, with sophistication and lyricism rarely seen in science fiction.
