What I would have liked to know before I bought this book. (minor spoilers)1. What type of book is it: adventure, action, drama, etc? This is a small, and simple, coming of age post-apocalyptic superpower story. (What a mouthful.)2. What is the story about, in general? The story is about the Hyllis family and specifically Tarc. It revolves around his growing `talent', family relations, his self-discovery as a man and the dangers of fighting off a small hostile force. The plot is VERY simple and the origin story equally so.3. What/Who is the target audience? The target audience is teenagers and young adults. Genre wise: superpower aficionados and post-apocalyptic aficionados.4. How is the proofreading? I wasn't tripped by any spelling errors.5. Is there character development or exploration? Yes. Keep in mind that the Hyllis family are all protagonists, with Tarc being the main protagonist. The story explores Tarc's personality, his relationship with his sister, mother and father and the gradual growth of prudence and responsibility that adversity brings.Secondary characters are generally well detailed and support the general `small town' feel of this simple tale.The antagonists, though one dimensional and obvious, mesh well with the story.6. Are the characters likable? I was pleasantly surprised by the characters. The Hyllis family are three dimensional. None of them are automatically perfect. Though they have `talents', all suffer from personality flaws, insecurities, small town fears, along with their dedication, loyalty, family strength and responsibility. They are well rounded with descriptions as well as personal peculiarities.I didn't pay too much attention to other characters, including the antagonists, because they filled particular rote roles. They weren't impressive, but well written.7. Do you have to suspend disbelief? I had a number of issues with some of the logical decisions that were taken by the Hyllis family, but, at the same time, they were believable. The Hyllis family acted like PEOPLE from a small town not heroes. It wasn't particularly `wowing', but believable.The world is not exactly well explained. There is no reason to go back to a `sword, bow and arrow' technological level. Nothing stops people from making gunpowder, bullets and servicing guns. The technology wasn't burned out or fizzled out like in S.M. Stirling books where the fundamental laws of nature changed and prevented guns from working well. It is much more difficult to learn how to make bows and swords (plus how to use them) than to simply continue to make guns. So no, I don't understand the tech degradation.8. Does the story keep its pacing? The story keeps its pacing, but understand, the story is underwhelming. The scale of this story is so very small, that it left me shrugging. The most I felt from it was "Oh, that's cool." Enjoy it for what it is, simple, small and not very complex. The story was entertaining, but, again, I felt like shrugging half the time.9. Is the book worth the asking price? In all honesty, I would have liked to pay $3 or less for this small book.In conclusion: This is a very predictable and very simple origin story that does not try to surprise or reach beyond the scope. The entire book is an introduction for the protagonists: the Hyllis family and Tarc. The protagonists are well written, with believable character merits and flaws. This is well done. The very mundane antagonists are stage setters for testing the Hyllis' `talents'. That's it. That's the story: I have talent, I grow talent, I use talent on small time villains and save the day, roll credits. Does that make it a bad book? Not at all, but it's not a `great' book either. The proofreading is good, but the language is very simple. The reader won't find great artistry in the sentence composition. I feel the price might be a little high, given the simple nature of this read, its world building and its scope. Regardless of its limitations, the story is easy on the mind and manages to entertain.3.1 Stars
Another great yarn! Although the plot is relatively simple, the treatment is very readable and captivating. Although I'm not sure that a "weak" telekinetic could do what young Tarc does, and yet not be able to do fatal or disabling things directly, the author does address the question. This is a "young adult" yarn, so not quite so bothered that Tarc deals with the consequences of hands on war. The absolute black that Dahners paints the invaders simplifies the plot and thus concerns. The prologue sets and interesting background, and the idea of healing is a great counterpoint. Highly recommended.
Telekinetic is a story set in a distant future wher civilization has been wiped out by a virus, started by a researcher experimenting with DNA from a 'magician' with telekinetic skills: he can lift a bean with his mind.Several generations later, the telekinetic gene has been handed down through one family, the Hyllis clan. Mom is a healer who can see into her patients, Dad has a bit of telekinetic talent, but their son, Tarc, has both tlelkinetic ability as well as his Mother's talent. Both of his talents are much stronger than his parent's.The author does not say how long after the virus this story takes place, but this society is in the iron age with horses as the means to travel and haul loads. There are no firearms or modern equipment to be had, except for a few items from the 'ancients'.The story revolves around a number of 'bad men' who bully the locals. All carry swords and are eager to use them. Tarc and his family use their talents to resist the invaders and protect their town... but no one in town knows of these special talents, so they must be careful that no one finds out, otherwise, they'd be branded as witches or sorcerers.The story is very engaging and fun to read. Torc uses his talent telekinesis to guide throwing knives and arrows to their targets with unerring accuracy. He can use this same talent to move internal organs inside the bodies of his mother's patients. It occurrs to me, why didn't he use this skill to stop the hearts of his enemies, rather than throwing knives? It would have been much safer for him and more spooky for the enemy. Oh well, it is what it is.Overall, the story is clever and evenly paced. The editing is quite good. I found no errors. While it was a fun read, there were no nail-biting scenes, nor were there any low points. Just a good even story. I wasn't really 'blown away' by Telekinesis, it was entertaining. I would recommend it.
I have enjoyed all the Ell Dorsai books and the two Vaz books, but "Telekinetic" may be even better. It shares some of the same YA characteristics: a youthful protagonist using extraordinary abilities to accomplish the seemingly impossible, and encountering hostility from authority figures. This one, however, ventures into gory violence that goes well beyond what Ell faced in her first struggle against terrorists.The story takes place in a post-apocalyptic world that has regressed to a state lacking in almost all the technology we take for granted, basically pre-Industrial Revolution. The Hyllis family has a secret, that it has the ability to see into things, or move things, or in the case of young Tarc Hyllis, a new awareness that he has both. When a small army of thugs take over his town. his new abilities are put to the ultimate test.I had wondered in the other series why Dr. Dahners left medical uses for his physics discoveries largely unexplored, except for some mention of medical "ports" in the Ell series. Well, it may be because he is getting all that out of his system in the Hyllis series. It is interesting, and refreshingly easy to follow in contrast with the more esoteric science that is the basis for Ell and Vaz.Dr. Dahners never fails to entertain, notwithstanding his tendency to paint his guys too broadly. I very much look forward to continuing this outstanding saga.
