[QUOTE="spiney, post: 157153, member: 192438"] To T.G. ...... I've just read Baby Makes Three, the original (short story) version of More Than Human. Great. Stugeon's initially difficult to get into - maybe the reason Vonnegut chose him - but then the interesting storyline "carries" you. Will now read longer version More Than Human, when I find my copy. Interesting to compare, shorter versions are usually better (stuff added to make a novel - for commercial reasons - is often just "padding"). I looked for something about telepathy, influencing George Smith (above), in John Campbell's collected letters (then I could say, "aha told you"). Alas, nothing there (which doesn't mean there wasn't a letter ....). [/QUOTE]
