I'm conflicted. I like the story premise, but I would have liked to see it stretched out a little more instead of just ending in 14 chapters. Jake fell into the sexual pleasure rather quickly, and though there is nothing wrong with that, I would have loved to see him further hesitate for a bit longer. Also Kashan stayed logical and subjective about the breeding process until the end, and again there is nothing with that, but I would have definitely loved to see his thoughts shift and become slightly more emotional towards Jake. This isn't tagged for romance, so I'm not mad that I didn't get, but I would have loved to see that blossom between Jake and Kashan. Things I think I would have also loved to see if it was longer:
-Are there other landowners like Kashan? What do they look like? As Thermos, do they are have the same personality and thought process? -They stated there are other ministers. I would loved to see them and to see how they were treated by their Thermos. -I would want to know how big the Thermo planet was and more of the geology of it. Is all the landscape the same? -I wanted to see the baby. Even though we got a glimpse of a baby Thermo, I would want to see the red pattern layout of Jake's and Kashan's baby. I would want to see Jake's interaction with it. See the difference in the parenting between the more human emotional Jake and the subjective Kashan. -I would want to see the Thermo growth process. How long does it take the baby to become a fully grown Thermo? Are they born subjective like Kashan or when they are younger are they more adventurous like many children tend to be? When they grow old enough to wan to breed their own egg, do they set off to find their own land? In regards to Jake and Kashan's child, will he simply become another slave if he can't beat Kashan in a fight for the land? Does Kashan delegate him a piece of land and give him a job of managing the slaves because he is his offspring? -On average how many offspring do Thermos have in their lifetime? And how long do Thermos live? I know they need a heat source, but what is their full biology. Is going cold for long periods of time the only major cause of death for them?
I wish the story was extend to hold alot more content. Now I have to dream up my own answers to these questions. Lol
