Damon Knight’s Sea Venture series wraps up with A Reasonable World. The mind-controlling parasites that were a localized infection in the first volume and an epidemic in the second reach pandemic status in A Reasonable World. The aliens can now enter and leave minds with much less disturbance than before, and they can and do kill anyone who intends a violent act they don’t like. For a novel that runs under 300-pages, Knight is juggling too many characters, plot elements and ideas. For me, it ends with disappointing abruptness. To give Knight his due, he does not play up the puppet-master-pod-people theme in an annoyingly obvious way, and he displays his usual scientific and technical ingenuity. 3.5 stars. (
