THE HOWLING STONES is SF action-adventure at its best. Strange stones found on a newly discovered planet prove to be far more than the healing gems the aliens use them for. In fact, they control a gateway to a vast system of intergalactic pathways built by unimaginably more powerful beings than themselves. . . something that could destroy all life in the Commonwealth universe forever! Like MIDFLINX, THE HOWLING STONES is a novel set in Commonwealth universe, in which many of Alan Dean Foster's most popular adventures have taken place.

Etat : Very Good. : Adéntrate en un reino diferente en el asombroso mundo de Humanx Commonwealth, ¡el imperio interestelar gobernado conjuntamente por humanos y extraterrestres! El planeta recién descubierto de Senisran era un verdadero paraíso: un mundo extenso de vastos océanos salpicado de miles de exuberantes islas y abundantes depósitos de tierras raras y minerales. La misión del especialista en primer contacto Pulickel Tomochelor en Senisran fue sencilla: asegurar los derechos de minería para la Mancomunidad Humanx antes de que el despiadado Imperio AAnn los alcanzara. Con el clan Parramat de Senisran resistiéndose a las súplicas, las negociaciones podrían ser difíciles, pero Pulickel se sentía más cómodo con los extraterrestres que con su propia especie, y esperaba un regreso triunfal a la Tierra. Sin embargo, no había contado con el increíble secreto de Parramat: las extrañas y poderosas piedras verdes que la tribu usaba para manipular las fuerzas de la naturaleza. Dentro de esas piedras se encuentra una tecnología asombrosa cuyo origen se perdió en el tiempo, una tecnología que debía mantenerse alejada de los AAnn a toda costa.

Paperback: 7" x 4¼". Etat : Near Fine. Cover Art: Bob Eggleton (illustrateur). 1998 Edition. © 1997: 6th in the 'Humanx Commonwealth' series of books. 1st printing of 1998 paperback edition:- Synopsis: The newly discovered planet of Senisran is a veritable paradise, its oceans dotted with thousands of lush islands containing vast deposits of rare-earths and minerals. But Senisran is also the Humanx Commonwealth's problem child, for each island is inhabited by a different tribe of aboriginal natives. Each has to be negotiated with separately for mining rights - and the Commonwealth is locked in a race against the vicious AAnn Empire to secure those rights. The clans of the Parramat Archipelago on Senisran are resisting entreaties by the Commonwealth and AAnn alike. But Pulickel Tomochelor, xenologist and first-contact specialist, is confident of his ability to handle the negotiations. What Pulickel hasn't counted on is the secret of Parramat: the strange green stones that the natives use to bless the crops, ensure plentiful fishing, heal the injured and ill, and control the weather. For within those stones lies an awesome technology the origin of which is lost in time - a technology that has to be kept from the AAnn at any cost:- (original cost £5.99).

The newly discovered planet of Senisran was a veritable paradise--a sprawling world of vast oceans dotted with thousands of lush islands and copious deposits of rare-earths and minerals. First-contact specialist Pulickel Tomochelor's mission to Senisran was straightforward: Secure mining rights for the Humanx Commonwealth before the vicious AAnn Empire beat them to the chase. With Senisran's Parramat clan resisting entreaty, negotiations could be difficult, but Pulickel was more comfortable with aliens than with his own species, and looked forward to a triumphant return to Earth.
