| Summary | "Grove of the Unborn" by Lyn Venable is a science fiction narrative written in the mid-20th century. The story revolves around themes of alien cultures and unexpected destinies, focusing on the protagonist, John Tyndall, as he finds himself caught between two worlds after a space expedition. The book likely explores topics related to identity and the divergence between human and extraterrestrial life. The plot follows Tyndall, a third engineer aboard the starship Polaris, who mistakenly believes himself abandoned on an alien planet named Arrill. As he navigates this strange new world, he learns about the Arrillian people, their customs, and their enigmatic worship of a creature known as the Bugs. After being kidnapped and held as part of a prophecy involving the priestess Lhyreesa, Tyndall finds he is believed to be an emissary meant to fulfill a longstanding religious expectation. The story culminates in a surprising transformation during a critical moment, revealing deeper truths about the Arrillian society and Tyndall's unexpected fate.
