Species discussion: Venber

[buffyangellvr23.livejournal.com]

The ones we saw were actually Venber with human DNA, but originally, the Venber lived on a planet relatively close to the Andalite world. They had the problem of being useful for the way they turned into liquid if they got too warm-although, the temperature limit is one we'd consider freezing cold ourselves. The Five hunted them to extinction for lubricants. They had hammer heads and four arms, plus feet that were like skis.

I do like the ending of that book, how Marco, who's narrating, talks about how they have to make sure the world knew what the Yeerks were doing to innocent beings, and how he describes the Venber suicide run near the end of the book.
