Psychic Hang Gliding, by Pittsburgh Pat.


I was only able to find one novel about hang gliding. Psychic Hang Gliding is a fun, quirky book. Putting "a sexy beach book" on the cover seems a little over the top, and the focus of the story is definitely on the psychic parts, not the sex.

It's 1990, and Blaze is a 23-year-old student of spiritual practices. He develops involuntary telepathy, which makes his bartending job overwhelming, and he quits to work as a hang gliding instructor in a remote area. His psychic powers include levitation, healing, and weather control. What he can't control is his yearning for the woman who left him, even when someone new is aggressively pursuing him.

The author does a good job of putting the reader in the scene, giving us the feel of hang gliding and even of spiritual experiences.

There's a weird epilogue where Blaze's spiritual mentor visits him with a warning. It feels like it's setting up a sequel, but as far as I know, there isn't one.
