''The Shrouded Planet'' is a 1957 science fiction novel published under the name "Robert Randall," but actually the collaborative work of two writers, Robert Silverberg and Randall Garrett. It consists of three linked stories, each originally published separately in the magazine Astounding Science Fiction. Linking chapters were added for book release. The first book printing, by Gnome Press in New York, was small and did not sell well. This and the sequel novel, ''The Dawning Light'' were reprinted 25 years later, and well received. The original stories, with first publication information are: *''The Chosen People'', ''Astounding'' June 1956 *''The Promised Land'', ''Astounding'' August 1956 *''False Prophet'', ''Astounding'' December 1956 (also front cover art) All the stories relate to the fictional planet Nidor and the effects on its humanoid inhabitants of the coming of Earthmen, humans with advanced technology and apparently benevolent motives. The common thread is a family, beginning with Kiv peGanz Brajjyd, his daughter Sindi, and her son Norvis. Each contributes to the slow breakdown of Nidorian society, which is apparently what the Earthmen really want. But why? ==Plot summary== The original three stories are bracketed by narrative which lays the foundations for them and details the passage of time between them. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Shrouded Planet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
