    Wow, I really like it. I was easily able to visualize it all as a classic noir fiction story set on a 1940s Earth, with cool period outfits and cars, and exquisite art deco architecture.

    Damn! That was fantastic! Much credit to the author Hal K. Wells, for giving us a story of excellent work. I’m not sure if I’ve ever heard your work before, but after this I’ll certainly be on the lookout for any! A special thanks to the Dr for choosing this story, and bringing it to us in a way no one else could, 👍, excellent work on both sides of the coin. 👍👍👍

    I have to admit that Arlog was perhaps the most well mannered alien invader bent on planetary domination and genocide I've ever heard of. He actually took the time to explain how he got there, how he planned to bring more of his kind, and even laid out his species' plan for the Earth and humanity. Stand up guy if you ask me.

    Good one doc. Now for a question. These Xorans live by eating metals, right? They are highly advanced, even to the point of traversing 4th dimensional space. Ok, so, why would they waste time, effort and risk, to exterminate the bio-filth of a planet so they can consume the metals? There are litteraly billions of planets, asteroid belts and moons out there that, as far as we know, do not contain life. So, why? Just another "locust species" setting. That said, another great narration.
