The group races to establish control of the portal before the government, the military, or evildoers can take it away. They connect to Outland-an alternate Earth with identical geology, but where humans never evolved. When an experiment to study quantum uncertainty goes spectacularly wrong, physics student Bill Rustad and his friends find that they have accidentally created an inter-dimensional portal. When the Yellowstone supervolcano erupts, it's up to six college students and their experimental physics project to prevent the end of civilization. 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. A couple of eighth-generation Bobs have found something out in deep space. Yet salvation may come from an unlikely source. 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. 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. And the Bobs have picked a fight with an older, more powerful species with a large appetite and a short temper. But political squabbles have a bad habit of dying hard, and the Brazilian probes are still trying to take out the competition. They've created enough colonies so humanity shouldn't go extinct. But after spreading out through space for almost a century, Bob and his clones just can't stay out of trouble. Instead he's become a sky god to a primitive native species, the only hope for getting humanity to a new home, and possibly the only thing that can prevent every living thing in the local sphere from ending up as dinner.īeing a sentient spaceship really should be more fun.

But that's the only part of the plan that's still in one piece. To add to the surprise, he is now a sentient computer and the controlling intelligence for a Von Neumann probe.īob and his copies have been spreading out from Earth for 40 years now, looking for habitable planets. Bob Johansson didn't believe in an afterlife, so waking up after being killed in a car accident was a shock.
