  Introduction Book Navigator Book Ratings    |
 The Puppet Masters(1951) Unfortunately, I saw the movie first (one of those trying-to-get-out-of-the-70's productions). The book was decidedly better. Sam Cavanaugh works for a top secret government agency engaged in trying to stop an insidious alien invasion force ('Dark Skies' anyone?). As parasites, the aliens covertly attach themselves to human hosts and take control of their minds and bodies. The US-Midwest is overrun, and its up to Sam to infiltrate the ranks of these invaders from Titan in order to learn how to defeat them. Notable quotes: Explanations are a poor defense.Platforming: Somehow, some way, the American community had been all wrong about the modesy taboo and had been wrong for centuries... It did not mean a thing, either pro or con, moral or immoral. Skin was skin and what of it?  Click here to order this book as paperback or audio cassette from
