Psychosphere (Psychomech Trilogy) [Paperback]

Brian Lumley (Author)

Book Description

Series: Psychomech Trilogy | Publication Date: October 17, 2001

After Richard Garrison lost his sight in a terrorist explosion, he developed vast mental powers that more than compensated for his blindness. He mastered the Psychomech machine, then used it to conquer his enemies and restore his dead love to full and vibrant life. Psychomech also revealed to Garrison the Psychosphere, a startling reality where mental powers reigned supreme and could influence people and events on Earth.

Once he was nearly godlike-or demonic, if one dared become his enemy-but now Garrison's mental abilities grow weaker with each use. He tries desperately to conserve his energies, but he has begun to have strange visions of a mind so different from his own as to be other than human, and knows he must stay alert and strong.

Charon Gubwa has invaded the Psychosphere. Twisted and evil, sexually and mentally warped, physically corrupt, Gubwa's desires are simple: More. More drugs. More sex. More power. More of the Earth under his dominion.

Richard Garrison must battle Gubwa in the Psychosphere and on Earth. And he must win, no matter the cost to himself or those he loves, or all mankind will be lost.

Brian Lumley really did a good job on this one. I couldn't put the book down until I had solved every mystery right along with the main character in the book.

If you have loved Mr. Lumley's other books, then you are going to love this one just as well.

3.0 out of 5 stars Less Thrilling Than Psychomech, March 3, 2000

Hmm, espionage, esp, I wonder what Brian Lumley likes to write about?

Book two in Brian Lumley's Psychomech trilogy. I found it a little less interesting than the first one. It started dragging and I didn't feel for the lead character Richard Garrison as much as I did in the previous story.
