The Human Blend

Last updated October 31, 2026

By Alan Dean Foster

In a future where criminals are punished by genetic engineering, Whispr is a thug whose implants have left him extremely thin. In a Savannah alley, he and his partner Jiminy Cricket kill a man for his artificial hand, and take an odd silver thread he carries. The thread seems to be a storage medium that others badly want. Wounded, Whispr lands at the clinic of Dr. Ingrid Seastrom. It opens Alan Dean Foster's Tipping Point trilogy.
