Most are dedicated to the harmony of the human soul. But some have darker intentions... If the metapsychics succeed in uniting Earth's minds to take the next step up in human evolution, a place awaits humanity among the alien peoples of the fabulous Galactic Milieu. But if evil minds prevail in their bid for power, Earth will be cut off...and mankind forever doomed! Average Rating:
 Rating:  - What Intervention...I read Part 1 which laid the background for the Intervention, so I eagerly read Part 2, but was very disappointed to find that the actual Intervention was only one line at the end of the book, basically saying "the space ships have come". I want to know how humans react to the coming of the aliens, but sadly we will not find out. At least the next book, "St. Jack the Bodiless", covers some events after the Invention when Earth was still under Simbari Proctorship. Rating:  - A Mind is a terrible thing to wasteHuman evolution has reached a new stage, and individuals are being born all over the world, with awesome mental abilities. Two of these, Rogi and Don Remillard, would change the world. Dons first born Denis, now a Professor of MetaPsychology, leads the World in the new Mental revolution, fighting to ensure that his fellow psychics can develope peacefully and freely. His evil brother Victor, intent on conquering the world, has a very different vision for the human Mind. Only one can prevail.

This book is an eye popping extravaganza of realization, and a quintessential understanding of "Human Potential". You must experience this novel, for simple reading does it no justice. Rating: - For fans of Julian May's work this is a must have...Part II of the Intervention continues Uncle Rogi's accounting of the pre-intervention human operant saga. Finally the family ghost is identified. You realize that there is a large quantity of story left to be told. Read the other Mileau books as well. Rating: - A SEARCH.... SATIATED... EXPECTATIONS OVERWHELMED.I read the Intervention, Part 1 way back in 1986... and I was waiting for Metaconcert to come out in 1987. I couldn't find one here in the Philippines. I tried all the bookstores, I tried putting out advertisements, I asked for it from friends, ( I even checked out the database of National Bookstore), until I bought my copy in 1998, right here at Amazon. I have read the others of this series, and my yearning for this book grew stronger. This book is seen easily as a denouement to a great story ... Read More |
