    Genetic mutation has devastated the world. In the bleak, primitive society that has emerged from its ruins, any sign of deviation is ruthlessy hunted out and destroyed. David lies in fear of discovery, for he is a part of a secret group of children who are able to communicate with each other by transferring thought-shapes into each other's minds. As they grow older they feel increasingly isolated. Then one of them marries a 'norm' - with terrifying consequences.

    Story

    I first read this book in 1970 - required reading in high school - the only one I ever really liked and never forgot it. Very thought provoking. Such a joy to have it read to me now.

    But the ending has me wanting more - how do Michael and Rachael get to Zealand?? or are they left behind?
