In Amnipur, cities and science and libraries are built on the theft of other species’ evolution. But when everything you do is a mere echo of someone else’s hard-won culture, what can an imaginative Amnipurian contribute to his quiet and efficient copycat world?
Perhaps the newly discovered species called ‘humans’ holds the answer ...
Amnipur A Science Fiction Short Story eBook Isabella Amaris
I would consider this short story rather a fable than a science fiction tale. The argument is interesting and has potential but the characters a bit too over-dramatic and therefore flat, so the three stars. The plot is about an alien race that depredates the culture of other races. There is a part where their society has an opinion about lies and (without revealing which opinion it is) is understandable as to avoid the truth you need to be forcefully creative.If you liked this story and would like to see the story with a more complex development and you have not problem in reading comic I strongly suggest you Seven Soldiers of Victory by Grant Morrison.

Amnipur A Science Fiction Short Story eBook Isabella Amaris Reviews
To the point and an all around good fiction. Very refreshing to have a human topic put on an extraterrestrial story without the usual plot.
Can't get into it... slow story. will keep trying to finish it, but who knows if that will happen. But hey it's free with Prime.
This is a short story about aliens who learn the hard way that humans are not meant to be assimilated. Will they survive the experience with their culture intact? Great short story. Loved the ending.
Starts out great by painting a picture of aliens and their ways but ultimately becomes mired when wandering into the aliens philosophical musings. A decent read but not interesting enough for me to rate higher than average.
In a society where everything is assimilated from newly encountered species, an alien race places everything in black and white. When they encounter humans, they discover something called imagination and everything changes.
The story overall was well written and had a very good moral. The twist at the end was well done. The only con was the lack of connection to the characters. I did not feel for them at all. I'm not sure if the author purposely excluded character connection to support the story basis. However, if it had been a full-length novel I definitely wouldn't have finished.
Excellent story concerning an alien race with no imagination...and what happens when they assimilate it from humans. Quick read, and I really enjoyed it, though there were a few minor issues.
More than once I came across a misspelled word including one of the characters names. Specifically Ashton's name is misspelled as Astron in the same paragraph it is also correctly spelled as Ashton. A few of the misspellings caused me to go back and reread a couple lines until I finally figured out what the typo was ("through" for "though"), which would have been an opportune moment to set the book down (something every author dreads). In a few places someone is speaking, though it isn't clear who it is.
The author should be careful not to use favourite phrases too often "he threw over his shoulder" (instead of the almost invisible "he said"), and the alien names, though pronounceable, caused me to stumble almost every time (again an opportunity to set the book down). I'm glad that the author didn't try to invent new words for such common concepts as "hour" and "day".
I was impressed with the lack of grammar errors (semi-colons!), though the use of a decent copy editor would have improved the text greatly.
A quick proofreading would have eliminated most of the formatting issues as well. Almost all the paragraphs were double justified (which is normal enough), but every now and then there was a paragraph that was left justified, and the ragged right was distracting.
Few plot holes, and the misunderstandings of the aliens when taking to the humans was handled very well. They all felt like real people, even the humans (though I would like to have found out what happened to Matthew, after the not-quite-successful assimilation).
I would recommend this, and other works by this author, to my friends.
