Wizard

In the year 1605, amidst the dense forests of Offenburg in Prussia, a clandestine group of telepaths lives in secrecy, their existence concealed from the non-telepathic world. These individuals, products of natural mutations or perhaps other unknown causes, have formed a hidden society to protect themselves from persecution.
Jonas, a member of this covert group, thrives on the thrill of danger and the challenges it brings. His latest mission leads him to the town of Speyer, where the Holy Inquisitions presence looms large, and the risk of exposure is ever-present. As Jonas navigates this perilous environment, he must use his wits and telepathic abilities to survive and protect his fellow telepaths from the relentless scrutiny of the Inquisition.
Wizard is a gripping tale of adventure, suspense, and the resilience of those who dare to defy societal norms in pursuit of freedom. Larry M. Harris masterfully weaves a narrative that explores the complexities of human nature, the fear of the unknown, and the lengths to which individuals will go to safeguard their secrets. This story delves into the historical context of the early 17th century, shedding light on the challenges faced by those with extraordinary abilities in a world that demands conformity.
Originally published in 1960, Wizard continues to captivate readers with its timeless themes and compelling storytelling. This edition offers a fresh opportunity to experience Harriss thought-provoking work, inviting readers to ponder the delicate balance between individuality and societal expectations.
