Are these similar to the Prisma pencils?

Both are colored drawing pencils, but the BIG difference is the Inktense actually are "ink", meaning once the color dries it is permanent, unlike the watercolor types such as Prisma, which if you lay down a blue, let it dry and add a yellow they will softly blend and make greens depending on how much you work them because they are water soluble. Inktense will NOT react to water after they dry; so that blue you layed down will not "blend" or lift so it may stay very blue looking or look green where the blue shows "through" the yellow. Also the Inktense are brighter and more intense. Buy both, and use watercolor pencils where you want a softer look, and the inktense where you want intensity.

Will these work with coloring books? i use mostly dover and stained glass coloring books.

When used without water, the Derwent Inktense Pencils will perform in the same manner as other professional grade colored pencils, with rich color and smooth, easy application. You dip the tip of the pencil in water to enrich the color further, and you can manipulate the color on the page with a wet brush. If the pages of your coloring books are heavy and thick, these pencils should work very well. If the sheets are lightweight, the page may buckle or curl if you use water with these pencils.

Which colors are included in the tin of 12? (I've bought a few individually, don't want to find these are all repeats.)

Ink black #2200, teal green #1300bark #2000, baked earth # 1800, poppy red # 0400, sea blue#1200, sun yellow #0200, fuschia #0700, deep indigo # 1100, leaf green # 1600, tangerine #0300, and apple green #1400. It is a pretty good range of colors. I bought them to create on fabric.

Are there Inktense skin tones, or are those colours only available in Coloursoft?

there is no color labeled skin tone but using a combination of sicilian yellow, carmine pink, antique white, some of the oranges, you can achieve a really nice skin color. But you should practice on a sheet before actually putting it in a painting. I am not familiar with Coloursoft, but the Inktense colors are subtle.
