Description

A unique science fiction first-contact novel told from the aliens' point-of-view; a 21st-century Gulliver's Travels with Homo sapiens as the Lilliputians. The last thing the factfinders - who call themselves Life - expected to find while traveling in space in The Curious on a mission from their planet, The Living World, was other life. But one day they stumble upon the third planet out from a backwater sun and find it teeming with a vast diversity of life, including one sentient and cognizant, if primitive, species that they dub: Otherlife. Being not only from The Curious but inherently curious themselves, they begin to study the Otherlife and their alien culture, discovering such strange things as: marriage, intoxicating drinks, weapons of minor and mass destruction, the gleeful inhaling of toxic substances, two-parent families, layered language, genocide, non-nude bathing, and - the strangest thing of all - religion. This first contact between Life and Otherlife, disconcerting for both, has moments of humor and moments of horror - and neither escape the encounter unchanged.

Good story but the production is lacking

I thoroughly enjoyed the story. The subject is interesting and there's an appropriate amount of humor which is very welcomed throughout the story.

The production however needs work. The sound to designate a change of view within a chapter made me flinch each and every time. It's way too loud and way to aggressive. The narrator does a good job at narrating the story but I think the production went overboard at some parts of excitement. Mostly it was pleasant to listen too but every once in a while I had to turn down the volume due to the unexpected loudness and distortion of the narrators voice.

You'll enjoy the story, just be prepared for some production quirks.
