Chuck Simon is supposed to be the most powerful psionic around in this tale. Turned into some kind of government assassin by an organization known as the Complex.

This is book 4 in a series (haven't read any of the others), and Chuck is now on the run from the Complex. Coincidence brings him to San Francisco where a young man is coming into his own psionic powers, but without the morals that Chuck uses.

It's a thin book so the story moves along at a good speed. It reads like a made-for-TV movie that would be shown in an afternoon slot, so missed by most but not too bad for people who did come across it.

This fourth book in the PSI-Man series is a great read. When your name is Chuck Simon and you have amazing psoionic powers, you have to learn to both conrol and hide them. However, when you end up on the west coast of the USA for a Christmas holiday, and encounter somebody with greater powers then you, the game plans change. They especially change when the more powerful psionic wants to harm all of humanity! This science fiction series by Peter Davis is so well written that you will hardly notice that it's over twenty years old. The series is only six books long and well worth checking out!

Continuing the story of Chuck Simon, man with incredible psychic powers on the run from the government. Very good. Chuck meets up with a teenager, The Chaos Kid, whose own psionic powers dwarf anything anyone's ever seen before.
