About this listen

The Unified Civilized Council, which has ruled for over a hundred million years has discovered new species in the Long Dark. Strange and unknown species that seem to have no rhyme or reason about them. Compounding the problem is the reappearance of the ancient Precursor Autonomous War Machines. Even worse is the fact that the newly discovered Terran Confederacy of Aligned Systems appear to be the only force capable of stopping the murderous robotic starships, some the size of small continents.

The first book in the Behold Humanity! series, this covers the initial meetings as well as the initial battles between the living and the terrible machines.

Shown from multiple alien viewpoints, including alien viewpoints, the series is vast and is over 1,000 chapters in rough draft form.

The rough draft for the series has been completely finished and is in editing. This series will not be dropped partway through, as the writing has finished. It currently stands at 1,000+ chapters and nearly 3.5 million words.

Digital Voice couldn't pronounce words and names.

love this story and really want to suggest it to family but that text to speech voice ruins the emotional impact of so many good moments.

A great new space war story

Love that story comes from aliens p.o.v. and golden age hero is my favorite. The A.I does mess up when it goes to a new paragraph. Messing up the first word sometimes. A great story can't wait for more.

Book good, Narration bad.

The book is great, but the Virtual Voice narration it terrible. Zero emotion/inflection (example: a bubbly kid begging daddy for something is read "Please, daddy.....please......please.....please" instead of how it is written "Please daddy, Please, please, please."

Me Like Long Time!

This is the Virtual Voice version of Part One of a series I greatly enjoyed reading.

The Virtual Voice sadly suffers from Artificial Stupid and so listening to this one may find many more annoying error spikes throughout, compared to if it was performed by an average human audio narrator.

I'd say the Virtual Voice AI programming still needs to be improved. A lot!

That said, with some forbearance and this knowledge in mind, this isn't awful. Even though it may actually make this specific work of fiction harder to parse at times.

I love this series

I love this series and have since I first saw it on HFY back before the coof, the audio reader is pretty good but it tends to screw up when it gets to the Gestalt conversations
