A Thousand Words For Stranger

I found A Thousand Words For Stranger to be a really interesting and action/adventure filled read. In many ways I analyzed this story through the meaning of Sira's telepathic race and why she is always on the run along with being hunted down. I also observed with how her character develops that she keeps piecing together her memories and origin more and more with the help of Morgan but also the meaning behind her people. An idea I had with this novel was what if she regained her memories instantly and went back to fight against those who were hunting her by hunting them. I thought in my opinion it would be an interesting turn of events of her gathering followers to help her fight back against her hunters and maybe they would know more about her origins that they would tell her. Another thing I analyzed and observed was Sira's history along with her people's history and significant meaning to the story and to what she wants to know and discover later on down the road. What I found interesting was her character development and meaning as a special clan member. Another thing that had meaning was her relationship with Morgan but throughout the novel I observed how difficult their inter-species relationship was on the run and how that affected the story because of how different they are. Lastly, the setting and melding of fantasy and Sci-Fi makes this story interesting to analyze Morgan and Sira’s experience of being on the run from a gang and how different species work with one another or how galactic diplomacy works.

The Martian

In this novel The Martian I observed and analyzed the unique situation of Mark Watney of being stranded on Mars from a terrible sandstorm while his crew flew off. I think in my opinion the reader is engaged and interested all the way through since most of it is based on Mark and his experience on surviving on Mars while trying to find a way back home to Earth. What I analyzed from this book was how Mark used some farming techniques from Earth on Mars that works and ensures his survival for a while. The book makes the reader think about how he/she would survive if he/she was in Mark’s situation and it creates a way of problem solving. The problem solving would relate to his survival and communication with NASA but the same would relate to the reader if the reader though about how he/she would survive on their own in the wild but even another planet to myself is far fetched for survival. Also my idea with this book as an observation would be how there is a sense of strategy with the sur...

Star Wars A New Hope

What I found interesting with Star Wars A New Hope is how the story can relate in a way to society in my opinion. The galactic empire in the story would be in my opinion relatable to a corrupted society that is turned into a dystopia that rules over the people. On the other hand the rebel alliance in society from the reader’s point of view would be the people that would resist against a corrupt government that rules with absolute power and authority. As I observe Star Wars more and more it dives deep into who can be good or bad in society and what defines a person for what he/she stands for. I observed that the rebels stand for freedom and democracy while the empire stands for control and power. In this story it revolves around Luke Skywalker as a beacon of hope and with the sith lord Darth Vader being the antagonist  they both fight for opposite reasons. I analyzed that Luke represents himself as a leader of democracy and freedom while Vader represents himself as a tyrant of tyra...

BloodChild

When I read the short story Bloodchild I was really interested and fascinated by how two species can work together in good and bad way in my opinion. The first species that assists the other one are called the terrans and the other is known as the Tlic however the Tlic co-depends on the terrans. One part of this story that I observed and analyzed was the topic of slavery essentially in this short story. I observed how slavery was needed in this story in order for the Tlic species to survive but in my opinon I feel like the terrans should have recieved something in return for thier services towards the Tlic. I also took away from my own experience with this story that the Tlic need a terran host in order to reproduce their own species and survive. What I found to be quite interesting was how this story depends on the dependecy of another species and the meaning behind that relates to slavery but also survival in my opinion. Furthermore, I found it to be saddening to see that one species...
