Civil war looms in the Bobiverse in this brand-new, epic-length adventure by Audible number one best seller Dennis E. Taylor. More than a hundred years ago, Bender set out for the stars and was never heard from again. There has been no trace of him despite numerous searches by his clone-mates. Now Bob is determined to organize an expedition to learn Bender's fate - whatever the cost. But nothing is ever simple in the Bobiverse. Bob's descendants are out to the 24th generation now, and replicative drift has produced individuals who can barely be considered Bobs anymore. Some of them oppose Bob's plan; others have plans of their own. The out-of-control moots are the least of the Bobiverse's problems. Undaunted, Bob and his allies follow Bender's trail. But what they discover out in deep space is so unexpected and so complex that it could either save the universe - or pose an existential threat the likes of which the Bobiverse has ever faced.  Heaven's River is the fourth installment in the blockbuster Audible Original Bobiverse series - which has sold more than one million copies.… (mehr)

While the overall Bobiverse story continues to develop, much of this novel is spent with original Bob. A bit of a Ringworld homage. Exploring Heaven's River was worth my time. I particularly like that Bob once again grows personally, metaphysically due to deep philosophical discourse with one of the native people (...otters?...). The author shows great respect for all of his creations. ( )

I love the characters of the Bobiverse. This book seemed to drag a bit as our heroes traveled through a huge structure, but the comedic element was, as usual for these books, front and center. And geeky and nerdy to the max. ( )

I feel very comfortable in Bobiverse: post-human civilisation, AI's, human civilisations, alien civilisations, exploring the galaxy, geekiness galore. What's not to like? It's good entertainment, and there is always a feeling of "it will probably turn out all right, more or less". Hopefully, there will more books :-) ( )

As with all the books in this series so far, this was a pleasure to listen to.
Excellent narration underpins another development of the Bobiverse. Perfect blend of action and humour. ( )

A worthy entry to the Bobiverse.

The story is scaled down with no world-ending threats and more personal motivation. I really like the exploration and discoveries, intrigue, the details of the technology marvels Bob discovers, and the undercover/secret agent nature of the main plot.

My main gripe is with the stakes being a bit too low, but that's the issue with star-killing, immortal replicants as main characters. And I've found the explanation(s) for the replicant drift a bit silly, but your mileage may vary. I thought the part in one philosophical discussion about "souls" got the definition not quite right either, but now I'm really nitpicking.

Anyway I didn't know what to expect from this, but was pleasantly surprised overall. ( )
