My head Canon is that the Humans of Earth and Mars still maintained a seat on the star people council almost being seen as elders from a bygone age. When the qu invaded humans and Martians were given less punishment due to the fact that this was their home world, they would be de-armed and technology would be taken away. Returning them to pre industrial like conditions. Ultimately they'd be wiped out by an unavoidable mass extinction like an asteroid.
19:30 this part of the book was really interesting because it look like if china was in a total collapse in a post apocalyptic period of it time it really shocks me that it’s so good a telling a story about political communistic collapse of the most powerful empire now sit in a puddle of crumble buildings and ashes less of survivors that still remain man after man is reminds me of George Orwell’s book 1984 but with a more deeper and darker level to it. Instead of like the government and everyone’s spying on you it’s just a complete collapse of what it was. But much darker. Man after man as a way, more powerful message towards it story then 1984 but a very more darker sinister story. That basically predicts even to this day.
The book itself isn't great, but admittedly 'Maybe Someday' is a very haunting line that's stuck with me since I first read the book, nineteen years ago.
I'm sorry that the analytics are so bad. I must say that I am RAVENOUS for Green World and anything Dougal Dixon, so I really want you to do a review of volume 2 as well as translating volume 1 for us. All I can do is offer my support and hope you take it to heart. Thank you for the effort you've put into these videos so far.
I think you should get volume 2. Honestly, I think that having someone who’s an English speaker going through Greenworld and its creatures, lore, setting etc would be awesome, because theres hardly anyone else on the internet that even has touched greenworld as a piece of SpecEvo. Even if you aren’t getting the views now, it *might* be more of an investment for future content creators to refer to down the road.
Thanks for taking the time to go through and share this with us Beware, it's cool getting to see your insights. I'm eager to see the next video and find out what is actually said in there.😄
honestly hate the idea that the Qu are humans from the future. it just shrinks the whole universe of All Tomorrows, and reduces the points of interest from "The entire heccen universe" to "Earth... just Earth." Qu are a million times more interesting as a mysterious alien species we just don't know much about. I'm assuming the Astromorphs wiped out the Qu to extinction myself.
I wonder if the Asteromorphs sent the Qu back in time to set in motion the events of the story... to push humanity to get to where they were in the present. That could explain the sudden disappearance of the Qu... and perhaps the Asteromorphs told the Qu that they made humanity what it is today, which of course, gave the Qu the religious fervor and God complex to do what they did. And then, the disappearance of humanity itself could also be attributed to the same theoretical time travel technology. But, if you think I'm missing something, feel free to debunk my idea. Cheers!
This is one of my favourite works of literature. Its so easy to find comfort in the imagination that we are only just maturing as a species and that our journey could be long and twisted. The final message always sends chills down my spine, how the true message is not about the millions of years of evolution, but rather the individuals journey.
Wjy there is a mln+ years in comunication time? Other races in jsut thousand years would invent stellar traveling, maybe in 3k, as it took for old earth. Ok, stupid race, 10k years, but still just1%o f a million. Sobefors latest rcaes would be able to cumunicate, older ones would simply came to them. 10m years ago humans were apes, so they rather put em i zoo, not an emprire. And they grew enought tech to notice asteromorphs and gravitals
