Sentenced to Prism

Last updated October 31, 2026

By Alan Dean Foster

A company has quietly been exploiting Prism, a rich planet where even the smallest creatures are built of living crystal, and all contact with its survey team has been lost. To avoid attention, it sends one troubleshooter, Evan Orgell, to investigate. He trusts his protective suit until the planet's environment destroys it. Exposed to a world of silicon life, he depends on help from its sentient natives to survive. Alan Dean Foster sets it in his Humanx Commonwealth.
