Not Free SF Reader September 4, 2007 A look at what happens when you set telepaths up to be judge and jury. Said psionics rely on drugs to have strong enough abilities. This, of course, can be manipulated. It is, in the case of one young woman. Forced to go on the run with a luckless city worker.
Fairly ordinary execution, but still somewhat interesting.
Excellent Science Fiction novel...but you can't have my copy April 9, 2001 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
After speaking with Kevin Anderson in San Francisco at a German restaurant about his new book with Brian Herbert (Dune: House Atreides), I asked him, if there were any book that he'd ever written before that he would recommend(one that he was very proud of). He told me to pick up a copy of Blindfold, if I could find a copy. Luckily, I was able to thanks to Amazon.com and I read it this fall. It is, in a word, remarkable. The story is put together like a masterpeice and I loved it from beginning to end. I hope that other lovers of Science Fiction will search and find this book as well because it is well worth your reading time. Good luck finding a copy folks. You can't have mine!

Slow start but a page turner from mid book to end November 6, 1998 All in all the book was involving and left me wanting more. The story line and setting was fairly different and the descriptions and characterizations were well done. The main characters were portrayed a bit weakly at first compaired to the fast action they went through from the middle to the end of the book. My biggest complaint is that it was setup a bit obviously for a sequel - i.e. the denowment left me feeling unsatisfied. So where is the sequel?

BLINDFOLD IS ONE TOUGH NOVEL. ANDERSON TELLS USTHE STORY OF A COLONY WORLD WHERE TELEPATHS CANTELL WHEN A PERSON IS GUILTY OF A CRIME. THIS SYSTEM IS FOOLPROOF UNTIL A MAN IS WRONGLY CONVICTED OF MURDER. WHAT INSURES IS A THRILLER FULL OF TWISTS AND TURNS!
