The main character in Sylvia Engdahl's "The Far Side of Evil" is able to withstand sensory deprivation by virtue of having telepathy. Tough book. Not sure I should have been reading it as a 10 year old, but then...
I read it too. It probably _shouldn't_ have been in the children's section, now that I think about it (but that's where all the SF that didn't have graphic sex used to be put).
In a weird piece of synchronicity, an email came through from Sylvia Engdahl's mailing list that "The Far Side of Evil" is about to get a reprint!!!
See http://www.sylviaengdahl.com/ for further information.
This is completely, totally and absolutely *fantastic* news. This book and "Blake's 7" were the definitive influences on my childhood imagination. Oh yes, and "The Adventure Game".
