It is. The aliens are watching us. They wonder at our customs, abhor our violence, and are puzzled by how we treat our planet. Earth-Watching is a tale of two planets, with simultaneous plots running on both. It is science fiction set in the present day that looks at how another civilization views us. On Earth there is murder and intrigue. On Palala there is conflict about culture, religion, and politics. The Palala civilization is a stable, sophisticated, democratic, almost utopian society that flows with the ecology of the planet. Now, for entertainment and research, they are watching Earth. Some Palalans are adopting Earth customs, and not everyone sees this as a good thing. Kebeck, a Palalan scientist watches an Earth girl, Adeline. He has become attached to her. She is in danger.

Carrion Comfort ReviewWhat if you could control the minds of others. And not just simply control their minds, but make them physically do anything you wanted them to. What type of person would you be? Well Mr. Simmons tells us in breathtaking detail.
The story revolves around Sal Laski, a Jew who survived the Nazi death camps of WWII. He came into contact with one of these Mind Vampires (as we come to know them) that he nick-names 'The Oberst.' Having his mind touched and his body controlled is worse than being 'raped.' And Mr. Simmons shows us exactly how that would feel. Chillingly! Mr. Laski becomes fanatical about finding his Oberst and giving him back what Sal had felt all those many years ago during the War.
Mrs. Melanie Fuller is a Mind Vampire also, and she and a few of the others with the Ability meet every year to discuss their scores (i.e. how many people they controlled and killed and how much publicity it got). They are so nonchalant about their controls and killings that it is almost maddening to the reader. They have absolutely no empathy for anyone or anything which makes them all the more horrific. Amazingly, the reader eventually becomes comfortable with these characters and wants to know if they will survive their own failings in humanity. Terrific stuff!
Mr. Harod is a slime-bag producer of B-movies Hollywood who also has the Ability. He uses it to control women specifically and solely (because he feels that touching a man's mind would be to homophobic for him).
Mr. C. Barent is a billionaire with the Ability who owns a mythical Island off the coast of Florida. Once a year 'The Island Club' meets and plays a game: they bring lost souls to the island and Use them to kill one another. The last Mind Vampire with a player still alive at the end of the week wins. (spoiler)
Incredible as it may seem, Mr. Simmons has the ability to write in many different genres...and capably so. He received a Hugo award for Science Fiction for his Hyperion novel. And received the Bram Stoker Award for Horror for this one. Truly fantastic.
An incredible novel and quite lengthy. At almost 900 pages, it kept me interested the entire time and rarely, if ever, lagged. Highly recommended reading for those who enjoy the written word and not just bland novels with mindless killing.Carrion Comfort Overview"CARRION COMFORT is one of the three greatest horror novels of the 20th century. Simple as that." --Stephen King
