Description: THE MAN WITH A THOUSAND NAMESby A. E. van VogtDAW pb(5th printing as of 1979) Condition: paperback book with some shelfwear (mostly at edges and corners), and an old stamp from a bookseller on first page. Call it GOOD. Although thirty light years distant, Mittend was Earth's nearest habitable planet. So the bored young heir, Steven Masters, contrived to join the first manned expedition just for a bit of excitement. When he found himself suddenly back on Earth in another man's body, it was more than he had expected. What then followed was a veritable kaleidoscope of events that was to involve him in multiple personalities, in more expeditions to Mittend, and in the affairs of the entity called Mother for whom Mittend itself was just a means to an end. Commentaries on line: Another great Van Vogt with some surprising angles; suppose you suddenly find yourself in some other body … I like how van Vogt writes paranoid, deeply flawed characters. His supermen interest me much less. This book is the former. Nothing amazing, but a fun read & I ended up liking the main character by the time it was done. A fascinating adventure where good jerk vs evil jerk! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Buy another book and add this paperback book to the package - - - and you will save some (maybe all) of the shipping charge for this book (especially if the other book is a hardcover book) - - - at least in the U.S.^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ______________________(I'll always combine shipping costs and refund any excess shipping charges for multiple-copy book orders.)For all "buy it now" items, please use ADD TO CART if you plan to order more than one item at the same time.______________ WOW!
