As always I enjoy your continuing story.

One... anomaly that stands out. And I suspect it is intentional for parallel lines of development, or for ease of 'translation'. The Ascocan (sp) trade in stocks and shares and it seems the greater community do as well. I suppose it makes sense just caught me off guard.

Such a wonderful universe

This story is growing by leaps and bounds, I hope the kids will get protection.

As I am sure they will be targets for unsavoury people, and the "first contact" with the other half of pod Darren. Will be very interesting to read about, I foresee a bit of an issue with them merging..

Just keeps getting better and better… I find myself checking every morning to see if the next chapter has poster. Thank you for writing such an amazing story (publish it on Amazon and I’d buy it in a heartbeat) and thanks for not going months between chapters…!

So many people getting blindsided in this chapter, just one surprise after another. Except for that chief empath councilor. She's had enough of that shit to just straight up ask "What now?" every time she gets a call from Liamor-23, rather than be surprised.

I had a thought the other day: what are the various pirate groups going to do when the Alliance stops supporting them? Are they going to disband and go back to their homes in the Alliance, find some hidden enclave and struggle on to the bitter end, leave human space in search of greener pastures, or perhaps band together for one last stand/raid as their grand finale?

I can imagine the pirates taking the mentality that if they are to die out, then they'll do it on their terms and do it in such a way that it'll be remembered. Going out in a blaze of glory and all that macho warrior nonsense. Perhaps a final raid in force against Liamor-23? Don't know how much the Interspecies Community saw of the Union's raid against the Alliance, but a pirate raid on Liamor-23 would give the Navy a chance to show off.

Just food for thought.

Just caught up with all the chapters. Didn't really read or post any comments on previous chapters. But here goes. Really enjoyed reading your series. It reads kind of like a soap opera, but we will call it a space opera.

I know you killed off one side character. I know you stated you could kill off characters off a dice roll. I don't mind main characters getting killed off in a book specially if it fits the plot. Don't shy away from killing someone because it may upset "the fan base". If they are truly fans they will continue reading. In a genre with violence people die. Be it Rob Stark, Dobby, or Golum it happens.

Not sure if you addressed this, and can't recall reading about it in the story. But how will the "Greater Community" accept the Pod-Drran into the mix but not the Alliance? They both use and have slaves. And I believe that aspect of the Pod-Drran were never addressed.

Continue on with this epic space opera! Very much enjoy it.

What I am really enjoying the last couple of chapters is we are getting more background and history of the different species. This chapter was the Maha-Rrin and the Asocan, the couple before this one it was the Harradi during the Alliance chapters.

I like the story, but the abbreviations disrupt the flow.

Another side note comment. Would have been nice with each different breaks you would have included either a date, or timeline counter.

I have been a fan of Sci-Fi since the age of 7 (some 70 years ago) and have been greatly enjoying your marvelous tale of inter-species adventure. Keep up the good work! I suspect that with a good editor you could publish your story in a 3-book series. Best wishes for your continuing imagination!!

As a story I'm waiting with bated breath for the next chapter but throughout there have been innumerable problems with homophones - all the usual ones ; site sight cite; discrete, discreet; principle, principal; you're your etc. You did however find some unusual ones - highering, hiring; costumes, customs; straights. straits and the one I particularly loved - Profit for Prophet, sounds very very evangelical.

There were also a number of occasions when you just plain used the wrong word - assignation for assassination was particularly memorable.

Please don't take take these criticisms too badly - I gave 5* consistently - had I not been enjoying the story I would have just gone away. It's just a shame that these little things made enjoying it so much more difficult. I concur with his assessment that with a good editor it deserves publication.

10 Apr 2024. Chapter 64 has been posted. Ch. 65 is well on its way and, hopefully, will be posted soon. In future, I want to put out at least one chapter per month. The new version of the Notes chapter (v 14), which was submitted 1 Apr 24, has not yet been posted. Hopefully, i...
