Mind of My Mind
by Octavia E. Butler
Review this book!
The second book (chronologically, not in order of publication) takes place about 150 years after the end of WILD SEED. The ancient psychic Doro, who takes over the bodies of others in order to prolong his life, continues to forcibly breed other psychics together in an attempt to increase the psionic power of their descendants. Finally, it seems as if his breeding project has reached its culmination with Mary, a strong potential telepath. After completing her "transition," the painful process of maturing into her mental powers, she instinctively creates a "Pattern," a web of psychic force linking her to other telepaths. Together, Mary and her Pattern represent the one thing that Doro has never encountered before: a truly dangerous adversary.

Publisher Notes
For 4,000 years, an immortal has spread the seeds of a master race, using the downtrodden as his private breeding stock. But now a young ghetto telepath has found a way to awaken--and rule--her superhuman kind, igniting a psychic battle as she challenges her creator for her right to free her people.
