Earth has been invaded – but one human terrorist has discovered a weapon which might change the course of the war!

Earth has been taken over by the Ganymedians, a race of telepathic worm-like aliens whose instinct for survival has overridden any human attempt to resist their rule. But there is one man who may have discovered a way to defeat them. Dr Balkani has created a machine which distorts reality, and therefore will allow a determined human to avoid the Ganymedians’ telepathic oversight.

But there is one problem – Balkani is a worm-kisser, a servant of the invaders, and may not allow his invention to be used against them…

Reviews

THE GUARDIAN
"The fascination of the novel lies in spotting the themes that Dick would later develop and make his own: the malleability of perceived reality, the imposition of the fake on the real and the struggle between good and evil. The Cosmic Puppets may be a minor work, but is nevertheless interesting."
