Synopsis
An extraterrestrial mistake, a controlled space warp left open a fraction too long, a Wyoming hiker unknowingly walks into another world. His surprised and reluctant hosts not only have him to contend with, but they must also head off a potential disaster on earth as his lover pushes local authorities into a desperate search.Alien explorers are studying Earth, moving to and from their planet through a controlled space warp exiting into the Wyoming wilderness. Mark Carter inadvertently enters the warp and is propelled to their world. His surprised hosts resent the intrusion. While awaiting a decision on what to do with him, Mark is introduced to an "experience-sharing" machine, a form of virtual reality that captures snatches of alien life then permits others to live them as if first hand. But unknown to the aliens, the process stimulates Mark's mind. He learns to communicate mentally, manipulate objects remotely, even rearrange his DNA to imitate other creatures. Mark's lover, thinking Mark is lost, travels to Wyoming and there goads the authorities into a search. Because the aliens are simultaneously attempting to learn about Mark's life on Earth, her involvement steadily deepens.

    Great value. Exactly as described. Packed well and with care. Shipped very promptly. Seller was communicative, honest and responsive, resolving a concern I had that was ultimately found to be misplaced and unwarranted.

    I bought this book because of the beautiful binding! The packaging was a quarter inch thick cardboard over bubblewrap, it was practically bulletproof & shipping was well tracked and fast. This book, "The Art of War," had a very good description and the pictures were great - looked better in person! A very good price for this classic book in hardcover. The Seller, PrepBooks, is reliable, descriptions were accurate, pictures were accurate, shipping was very prompt. I will buy here again!
