      For a similar story, read "The Course of Empire" by Eric Flint and K.D. Wentworth. It's a long read at over 500 pages, but worth it.
      The Jao conquered Earth. but as humanity is more disorganized than inferior they have difficulty completely subduing it.

    • @JMM33RanMA
      @JMM33RanMA 2 месяца назад +20

      Is it better to hear a woman with a man's voice or a man with a woman's voice. Both men and women have higher and lower ranges, you know, so you can be surprised, as I have, on occasion. After hearing normal women's voices I found the Minnie Mouse voice that Japanese women are expected to use irritating and off-putting.

    A+! Excellent story, excellent narration. But the human made a mistake. Varoon stated when he saw the Neko that her form was pleasing, but that it didn't mean anything to him. The Supremes had made his species sterile. Giving him freedom does nothing for him. Unless the humans can reverse the sterility, his species is extinct.

    Also I like how this narrator does female alien voices. They sound accurate, which helps keep me engaged in the story.
