About this listen

The epic and highly anticipated conclusion to the listener-favorite series that had countless Audible listeners (and employees) hooked from the very first Bob - featuring, as always, a flawless performance from the inimitable Ray Porter.

Being a sentient spaceship really should be more fun. But after spreading out through space for almost a century, Bob and his clones just can't stay out of trouble.

They've created enough colonies so humanity shouldn't go extinct. But political squabbles have a bad habit of dying hard, and the Brazilian probes are still trying to take out the competition. And the Bobs have picked a fight with an older, more powerful species with a large appetite and a short temper.

Still stinging from getting their collective butts kicked in their first encounter with the Others, the Bobs now face the prospect of a decisive final battle to defend Earth and its colonies. But the Bobs are less disciplined than a herd of cats, and some of the younger copies are more concerned with their own local problems than defeating the Others.

Yet salvation may come from an unlikely source. A couple of eighth-generation Bobs have found something out in deep space. All it will take to save the Earth and perhaps all of humanity is for them to get it to Sol - unless the Others arrive first.

All These Worlds is the third installment in the blockbuster Audible Original Bobiverse series - which has sold more than one million copies.

This is quirky, engaging, scientifically plausible in a way so many stories fail to deliver, has enough shiny references to star trek and science fiction franchises to make a big bang theory or Firefly fan very very happy, and manages miraculously to make a lot of Bob's individually personalised and uniquely geek-qualified. Didn't bugger up the ending either...satisfying closure, very well written, very well read.

Best story series I've read since Wheel of Time

I'm going to try to avoid any spoilers, but what a spoiler is for you may not be a spoiler for me, so be warned!

first of all let me just say the narrator for the previous books and this one is just fantastic at giving each of the bob's their own personality's and quirks, made the whole listening experience that much more enjoyable.

Hot off the back of book 2 I was eager to read more about the conflict with the "others" more than anything, but the book leaves most of that plot for the second half, which was personally frustrating for me but ended up for quite an exciting and tense listen and totally worth it in the end.

The story with the Deltans was enjoyable and emotional and wraps up in a very natural way, however part of me thinks Taylor has left a little "something" there that may mean we might hear from the Deltans sooner than expected.

the human relationship story lines have always been the least interesting for me, I enjoy reading about the solutions the bobs need to come up with to tackle the logistical and often human created problems, but some of the romantic stuff just felt a little forced, the questions and ideas that story line tackled are very interesting ones but ultimately didn't grab my attention fully and I was just waiting for the chapter to end.

Medieros is still about and causing problems for the bobs, without saying too much I really hope we get a POV chapter from him one day, or maybe just a little more insight in to what makes him tick!

the book itself ends in a really neat and satisfying way, with a few story threads left for (hopefully!) future books.

I'm almost upset with myself for tearing though it so quickly, despite some little issues I had with it, this series has been has been one of, if not my favourite in recent years and the thought of having to wait for more is making me wish I had a stasis pod of my own!.

A satisfying wrap up to most of the story arc

I am sad to have reached the end of the trilogy. The entire series ranks among the most memorable science fiction I have ever read/listened to. I tend to score, somewhat unfairly, all new sci-fi I encounter against the Culture Series by Ian M. Banks. The Bobiverse trilogy failed to disappoint even once and while certainly more comical in nature than Banks’ books they rank right up there in terms of story, imagination and shear enjoyability. I found myself elated at victories and moved to tears by losses. I sincerely hope that the story of the Bobs will continue in future books.

A thrilling conclusion

Amazing story, captivated me and connected with the characters... just amazing. Great for the sci fi geeks out there but even for the non geeks as well. A great last book of the series

Amazing trilogy

A fitting finish to 3 very good books with unique SF story line, both written and read with humour.
It would be great to see how the Bobs move forward in a 4th book

Great story and narrator
