Soft cover. Condition: Good. John Schoenherr (Cover Art) (illustrator). Judith Merril (1923 - 1993) is famous for her yearly Science Fiction anthologies - some of the first such efforts published. She was also the author of a few excellent novels, and "The Tomorrow People" is one of them. It may seem a bit dated, as it is a product of the Cold War years ? and she has people returning from Mars in the year 1977 - a bit of an acceleration of future history. But it is a gripping story. The cover blurb: "He came back from Mars with a secret too terrible to remember: there was something on Mars that killed people! One expedition vanished without a trace. Out of another only one man came back. That was Johnny Wendt - the only man who had seen Mars and lived. His knowledge could be decisive in the desperate East-West race for Space. But Johnny didn't know what it was that made Mars a death-trap . and he didn't know that he'd brought it back with him!"
