This review is from: Mind Slaver (Paperback)
Former Admiral Varl Tarl Sogan believed his whole family destroyed in the purge that followed his conviction to death for refusing to obey the direct order of destroying a planet. But the small Arcturian force stranded on a perilous planet that enslaved the population is from a ship that Sogan knows his cousin commanded. And as Sogan himself is a telepath, this cousin that controls the minds of his subjects is not a complete surprise. The thing is - Sogan has to help the commando team destroy the rogue army - and that will mean the destruction of his last relative alive.
I grew to really like Sogan, but sometimes his mental stress seems over-extended. So i may grade some of the books in the series lower than I'd usually do, just because unrelenting psychic pain makes me mad, and the refusal of the character to grow out of that state of mind is annoying. Other than that, the books are very enjoyable. Recommended.
