An excellent book!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I recomend this book. "In the Company of Mind" is one of those novels that draws strongly on it's genre without becoming a rehash or cheap knock-off. Some of the best theams in Science Fiction from the past 10 years are present, but they are handled smoothly, so as not to distract from a first rate story and an original premise.
An excelent book

I read this book in one sitting. It is a bit disturbing, and no doubt will take some fire for a few scenes, but it is a great book.
The best book I've seen in a long time

This book has it all. It has great character development emotional depth. Even if your a girl who rarely reads science fiction, (like me) you still love this book. But it's not all mushy stuff. It has all the blood and gore you can possibly want, and an incredibly exciting, twisted plot. The sci-fi futuristic technology is developed in depth, and worked into the story flawlessly. It's definitely a book you'll want to read over and over again. Get it!
Excellent

I am very disappointed that this is a first novel. Normally when I see something of this quality I can rush out and buy a bunch of excellent stuff that the author has published earlier. Now I am going to have to wait.
1st novel or not, this is out of this world !

I ordered a copy of "In The Company ..." on the basis of reading a sample chapter at Baen's web site. I finished the book one day after it arrived and have already started recomending it to freinds ! Mr Piziks has created a reaistic near future world with characters you can care about. The multiple personality slant is handled in a very original manner and in such a way that the reader's perception of what is going on in Lance's head varies from chapter to chapter. Coupled with the 'split chronology' of the book, constantly dipping back into the Blackstone's past, this makes for a highly compelling read.Stven Piziks just made it onto my favourite authors list !
