Description
There's Lone, the simpleton who can hear other people's thoughts; Janie, who moves things without touching them; and the teleporting twins, who can travel ten feet or ten miles. There's Baby, who invented an antigravity engine while still in the cradle, and Gerry, who has everything it takes to run the world except for a conscience. Separately, they are talented freaks.
Together, they may represent the next step in evolution - or the final chapter in the history of the human race. As they struggle to find whether they are meant to help humanity or destroy it, Sturgeon explores questions of power and morality, individuality and belonging.

A curious item
So… this book had a lot of ideas well ahead of it’s time. It’s full of interesting conceptual ideas and philosophies. The story felt more than a little clinical and plodded. It’s possible this felt much slower and fuller than it was as a result of my having just finished Off Season by Jack Ketchum which is considerably more vivid (understatement)
Narration is ok. Rudnicki comes off like an undertaker and Ellison like a crazy person (he is).
Check it out if the premise is interesting to you, but be prepared to wade through some slow and abstract stuff.
Another note, this book is widely considered to be a near masterpiece, so take my two cents with a grain of salt…
