Icerigger is a 1974 science fiction novel by American writer Alan Dean Foster. Like many of Foster's science-fiction novels, Icerigger takes place within his Humanx Commonwealth fictional universe.

Together they search for a way off the planet while fighting against both the extreme weather and deadly fauna of the alien world.
