What the title says, I’m tired of the trope where humans are the least advanced in the universe.
I’d like to read something different where we’re the more advanced ones (not necessarily the most advanced). As an example I quite enjoyed the Ender’s Game sequels and the angle of us being the more advanced ones was quite interesting.
Do you have any recommendations?
Project Hail Mary (by Andy Weir, who wrote The Martian as well)
I mean the aliens are literal microbes so that’s a pretty clear W for humans lol
!Seriously, if you haven’t read the book don’t unspoil the next section!<
!Eridians are technologically superior in some regards to humans, but less scientifically advanced by FAR lol!<
