The Fifth Head of Cefberus by Gene Wolfe

The Fifth Head of Cefberus by Gene Wolfe
An engaging story. A mix of a Victorian explorer's journal, mystic crystal revelation and Franz Kafka.

We have a pair of habitable worlds orbiting a common sun and perhaps orbiting each other. One world may have had some aborigines who were able to change their appearance to appear like humans.

We have some people, but for the most part they seem to be devoid of human warmth. Gangsters and cannibals, mostly.

There are three separate stories that are thinly linked. It's an engaging story but it doesn't go anywhere and left me feeling disappointed.
