The premise of this book is fascinating and one I had not come across before in many years of sci-fi reading. An alien race, made up of a 'hive' intelligence, is astonished that human-kind are individuals and sets out to change us into a "hive" with unpredicted results. Fascinating!
The story begins fairly slowly, setting up a lot of unrelated scenes, and builds gradually until there is a wonderful rush from about two-thirds of the way through, building until the end. I was in such a hurry to read it that I found the final chapter slightly confusing and had to re-read it twice to work out who won. Undoubtedly my failing!
What let this book down unfortunately, was the style of the narrative which was reminiscent of all those '70s disaster movies (very different people in one situation, all reacting) and it felt a bit tired. although I was well-aware this was written years before The Poseiden Adventure and Towering Inferno and probably appeared fresh in the '50s.
All-in-all, an excellent story by a master of sci-fi which failed because it was dated. NOT Sturgeon's fault, but my own fault for not being old enough to enjoy it at the time of writing .
