Personally I think that the human portrayal in Kotlc is stupid. All the elves see humans as crude and stupid creatures that only blow up stuff. Well, I personally see creative people as the smarter ones, and wich species is the one creating works of art and music every day? Humans. Elves just sit around doing, i dunno what ever. Also, for a culture that prides themself in medical advancments, their seems to be a lot of conditions that Elwin writed off as incurable and doesnt try to find a cure for. Also maybe humans do blow up stuff, but at least when their is a problom, the first thing we try to do is stop it. Unlike the elves who procrastinate. Baisically what I am trying to say is: The elves just sit around and let the gnomes do the work, whilst humans are constantly trying to change and build the world for the better. Also humans have a better culture. I mean it starts off with Sophie being told that all Elves are moral and would never think of violence. Whilst later you see a lot of jerks, and you learn that some elves were deliberatly coming up with a way to comit violence without going insane. And then you learn that their is still predjudice in the elvin world. So realy elves are just a bunch of strait forward superhuman brats with advanced technology. Also they don't have stuff like art, and music, and telivision, and literature. things wich I cannot live without. Also the elves could probably stop global warming, but nooo, because they think that is the humans problem. Not to mention that maybe we take for granted humanitys technology, but Dex literally called centuries of reaserch and hard work, something most elves don't know, primitive. Even Sophie has become a bit of a snob, and she forgets her past life. So maybe we are imoral, stupid, and violent, but we are also peacful, smart, creative, unpredictable, and just plain better at not taking things for granted. Not to mention probably half of elvin acheivments probably happened because of special abilitys, something elves were born with, whilst humans used their smarts.

Anyways, sorry about that long rant. There is clearly good things about elves, I was just kinda hating on how much they think humans are stupid. Hopefully their will be some human awsomness shown in the next book, especialy since I kinda want Amy to be upgraded to a major character.
