Year 2007. About Titan invading aliens from the United States. They are gelatinous creatures that are determined on the neck of humans and override their will, turning them into puppets. So quickly take over whole cities. But the man once again conquer the forces of evil, thanks to the secret agent Nivens, his lovely wife Mary and his father, the famous "Master." Like any book of this author, PUPPET MASTERS has two possible readings. Taking as an adventure novel, the pace is brutal and lasts less than an exhibitionist at the door of a police station. The sense of narrative machinery is geared to one hundred percent by the most basic entertainment and there is the slightest complication in ways that can mislead as the psychology of the characters, structure or language. This is a pulp pure and simple, a paradigm of classical science fiction's golden age, with its omniscient sage, its protagonist youngster to be tanned at his side, the girl who is destined by God's grace to be your partner in every way, bad is bad because it's bad ... Damn! If it were not flying cars appear resembles most basic heroic fantasy.
The other reading comes on the heels of philosophy heinleiniana and text messages ... I must confess that the influence of socio-political ideas in my final assessment is perhaps a little unfair: Heinlein judge from another cultural sphere at a time so different is not too appropriate. But need to have them square, watched from a distance, not feeling crestfallen for its simplicity and imaginative approach to all his obsessions. First, by the way they put the panic en el cuerpo de sus lectores ante los enemigos que, sin asomo de duda, se estaban introduciendo entre los pacíficos ciudadanos americanos.
