    Well-written, internally coherent, well paced. (Which are increasingly rare in Sci Fi).
    Brin does a great job of writing about the challenging notion of multiple separate races working together for mutual benefit.

    5,0 de 5 estrellas "By Darwin, Goodall, and Greenpeace!"
    Reseñado en Estados Unidos el 24 de agosto de 2021
    Compra verificada
    This book is the third in the Uplift Saga series. It follows "Startide Rising" where neo-dolphins are "manning" their first starship.

    In this book, the focus is on neo-chimpanzees (Pan Argonostes) with a small cast of neo-chimp characters to grow to like: Fibin Bolger, Gailet Jones, Benjamin, and Sylvey plus a crew of "Probies" ("probationers", chimps not quite advanced enough to reproduce freely) made up of Irongrip, Weasel, and Steelbar who you grow to not like.

    The author chose to write this book as if morals are not absolutes but relative to the species involved. The neo-chimps had not been bred with any of the human taboos about sex or reproduction however their reproductive process was managed by the Chimpanzee Neo-Uplift Board; if they said "go and multiply", the chimps did so. Each chimp was issued a color coded card that was its breeding clearance.

    There were also 4 sets of aliens to observe at close range: Tymbrini, Thennanin, Gobru, and Kwackoo; the latter had been uplifted by the Gobru and were still subservient, as all Galactics knew. The Tymbrini and the Thennanin were present on Garth (the planet where the novel takes place) as ambassadors representing their races, Uthacalthing and Kault, respectively. I loved the sense of humor of the Tymbrini and the lack of humor of the Thennanin. The Gobru had no sense of humor at all. In fact, since they were avian-like, I couldn't figure out how they could hold weapons; the author made no mention of them having hands. I guess rather than a "hair trigger", their rifles would've had a "feather trigger".

    Much of the book was literal guerrilla warfare for survival by the indigenous creatures against the superior force of the Gobru. Early on, the humans were removed from the story line to an island off shore thru the Gobru's use of "hostage gas"; if exposed to this gas, you would die in several days unless you turned yourself in for an antidote.

    The worldview of Garth (and the universe of the Five Galaxies) is stark and godless. In place of the word "God" is a minor profanity, the book uses "Ifni" (which was an abbreviation of "Infinity" or "Lady Luck" - nothing like God). In addition, one of the exclamations is "By Darwin, Goodall, and Greenpeace!" which is enough to drive you into a dark depression if you say it often enough; in it is no hope and no joy, just random chance and mutation.

    At the same time, looking at the brutal Gobru occupation of the planet Garth, one of the Tymbrini said "that when something like this happened, one really knew the God Himself was still in charge" (page 544 of the Kindle edition, not a literal quote).

    There was a map near the beginning of the book but I (personally and subjectively) did not find it much help.

    This was the first book in the series that had significant formatting issues: mostly hyphens that appeared in the text when they should've been hidden and only used to determine where to break words at the end of a line. Lots and lots of hyphens.

    I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.

    5,0 de 5 estrellas Great Characters
    Reseñado en Canadá el 1 de octubre de 2018

    To me, the most important 2 features of a book are 1) Is it readable over and over? This book easily pasts that test. 2) are the characters interesting enough that I would like to know them? I know of no one who's aliens or other life forms are more interesting. Mr Brin weaves multiple story lines together without confusion or loss of continuity. Above all, it is fun to read and upbeat in a sea of deadly dark future stories. If I want to be depressed I'll read a newspaper or watch cable news. Mr Brin shows you can be upbeat, logical, and fun all at the same time.

    4,0 de 5 estrellas Good continuation of the saga
    Reseñado en Estados Unidos el 10 de febrero de 2023

    I first wrote this review at 1:00am, having stayed up way too late to read through the climax and denouement. Compelling ending, that grabbed my interest and kept me going. Great characters I cared about; I wanted to find out what happened to them. Hoped they would all succeed. Some do, some don't, but it was quite satisfying. The tension throughout the book was great, with multiple sub-plots working against each other. I particularly liked seeing the story from the multiple points of view: human, neo-chimpanzee, friendly aliens, and antagonist aliens. Very creative characterization and culture for the aliens.

    All that said, I can't give it 5 stars for several reasons. I found it repetitive in some of its underlying messages. I particularly tired of hearing over and over how the Bururali had destroyed the planet's ecology, and how terrible humanity was pre-Contact. Those two messages were driven over and over, to the point of detracting from the current story. I was also distracted by the over-use of highly unusual vocabulary. I have a large vocabulary and enjoy using 50-cent words myself, but even I was forced to look up words at the rate of 1-2 per page. Finally, there was far too much interruption of the action for my taste. Even in the climax, with a hot-and-heavy personal battle going on, the author chose to intersperse the battle with reminders of how the protagonist had gotten to that point during this day.

    All in all, it's a good book and worth reading, despite the problems.

    I love this book but the actual physical book was falling apart -- poorly bound. I had to keep stuffing loose pages back as I read it. There is no keeping this for an otherwise well-deserved second or third read.
