Summary "Sordman the Protector" by Tom Purdom is a science fiction novel written in the early 1960s. The narrative explores themes of power, responsibility, and the complexities of human emotions in a futuristic society where psionics, or psychic abilities, play a critical role. The story revolves around Andrew Sordman, a talented psionic adept known as a "Talent," who is tasked with protecting people from the misuse of these extraordinary powers. In this gripping tale, Sordman faces the challenge of addressing two murders connected to a young girl accused of witchcraft. As he investigates, he confronts the emotional turmoil and fear of those around him, navigating through the psyche of both the innocent and the guilty. His journey takes him through encounters with various individuals, including frightened townsfolk and potential suspects, revealing the deep-rooted fears and desires that influence their actions. Ultimately, Sordman's role as Protector is tested as he must find a way to save the girl while also containing a dangerous individual driven by jealousy and insanity, illustrating the delicate balance between power and compassion in a world rife with fear and misunderstanding.
