Perfect for you if...

  • You enjoy post-apocalyptic worlds where human abilities replace technology, and want stories grounded in how people actually use gifts to solve problems.
  • You're drawn to series that build slowly across multiple books, with each instalment adding new characters and expanding what seemed like simple powers into complex possibilities.
  • You like medical problem-solving mixed with fantasy worldbuilding. think character-driven plots where the stakes are personal healing, not epic battles.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You need fast-paced action and high stakes conflict. This is a contemplative series about how talents develop and what people can do with them, not constant danger.
  • You prefer standalone books. This is the fourth in a series and assumes you know the Hyllis family, their history, and how their talents work.
  • You want romance to be central. The relationships matter here, but the heart of the book is discovery and learning to use newfound abilities.

About this book

Telepath is the fourth book in the Hyllis Family series. Set in a post-apocalyptic world where civilization has regressed to iron and horsepower following a plague-induced collapse, the Hyllises have developed inherited genetic talents. Eva Hyllis and her ancestors are healers whose talents allow them to sense inside patients and diagnose underlying causes of illness, though treatment is not always possible. Eva's children Tarc and Daussie have inherited telekinetic and teleportation abilities that prove medically useful—telekinetic pressure can stop bleeding, and teleportation can remove stones and arterial plaques. In this installment, they discover their young cousin Kazy is a telepath, and Tarc learns his girlfriend Lizeth is a precog, just before she ends their relationship. As they identify more people with useful talents, they uncover an ancient, undisturbed medical facility that offers equipment and knowledge. These discoveries may help Eva realize her long-held dream of teaching and practicing medicine full time.
