eality twisted...
slightly. Earth shivered. For a split second the Solar
System wasn't. And then was again. Less than a billionth
of a second - but a time shift had nonetheless happened.
As the shadow ship started to emerge from the time jump,
men and aliens were locked in a secret, undeclared war
for control of the Earth. Genetically altered, the aliens
looked exactly like humans. And they were in positions of
power everywhere. Opposing them were two humans and one
isolated brain in a mechanical body. But between them
they held the one secret that the aliens had never
learned about the people of Earth....Orginally
published in 1972. It was also
published by DAW Books as "Earth Factor X". It
is partly based upon the short story "The Sound of
Wild Laughter".
