Summary "Minions of the Crystal Sphere" by Albert dePina is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The story is set in a dystopian world dominated by a ruthless ruling class known as the Protectors, who enforce stringent laws in the City of Plastica on Neptune, while the oppressed Irreconcilables, living in the dangerous outskirts, resist their control. The protagonist, Vyrl Guerlan, is a young scientist who finds himself entangled in the brutal politics of this oppressive society as he grapples with issues of morality, power, and rebellion. The opening of the novel presents a richly woven tapestry of a futuristic society where the title city is encased in a colossal transparent sphere, symbolizing both beauty and authoritarian control. As Guerlan navigates through a lavish masquerade filled with intrigue and danger, he witnesses the decadence and cruelty of the Protectors, contrasting sharply with the plight of the enslaved masses. Amidst a sword duel prompted by his dissent, Guerlan's conviction grows to challenge this oppressive regime, suggesting that he is not only a product of this society but also a potential catalyst for rebellion as he becomes increasingly aware of the injustices that surround him.
