The Universe Against Her is a sequenced collection of the first two Telzey Amberdon science fiction stories by James H. Schmitz:
The novelet and novella meld into a fine introductory novel of Telzey: her extraordinary mind, latent unique talents, and fascinating galactic milieu. See the essay Demigoddess of the Mind: James H. Schmitz's heroine Telzey Amberdon. Telzey has been fortunate in her illustrators: cover paintings for The Universe Against Her are quite different but all evocative. These two stories also lead off the larger collection Telzey Amberdon — which unfortunately contains a slightly-abridged-by-editor version of "Undercurrents". Please see the individual story reviews at Troynovant, or the Telzey Amberdon Series Overview.
