No time for Toffee! by Henry Farrell
"No Time for Toffee!" by Charles F. Myers is a science fiction novel likely written in the early 1950s. The story revolves around Marc Pillsworth, who finds himself facing life-threatening challenges, including being shot amidst a conspiracy involving subversive government propaganda. As he grapples with his precarious existence, the character of Toffee—a seemingly imaginary yet vivid presence—complicates his situation with her spirited and unpredictable nature. The opening of the story introduces a
dramatic scene where Marc is about to broadcast concerning a government scheme when he is shot, leading to his apparent death or critical injury. Following this, the narrative shifts to a spectral perspective with the High Council discussing Marc's fate and the need to intervene, as well as the chaotic antics of George, Marc's ghostly counterpart, who wishes to inhabit the Earth permanently. As the story unfolds, Toffee, Marc's mental projection, emerges prominently, and together with George, they find themselves caught in a web of threats from government agents plotting their demise while simultaneously navigating their surreal and often humorous circumstances.
