I really did not like this story. It is derivative and not long enough to actually be able to allow a new view into an old story.

The Martians had invided the Earth and enslaved the population. But the planet is different enough so that the Martian women cannot carry a child to term - so the Martians have no chance to survive without babies. But the human girls can give birth even to babies that are not genetically theirs. And the enslavement continues until someone has a bright idea. I really hoped the story is not going there - a virus that kills the babies is really an old old idea.

The writing is not bad which saves it from being an awful story but it is unoriginal and pointless... ( )
