Hugo Award Winner, Best Novel, 1988

David Brin's New York Times best-selling novels thrill listeners with their stirring adventures and intriguing speculation about humanity's future. Set in a universe where no species has reached sentience without the "uplifting" help of a patron race, the books delve into the greatest mystery of all: Who uplifted humankind?

Earth has been allowed to colonize the planet Garth only because its previous occupants went berserk and wiped out virtually all life there. But now humans, chimps, and their alien allies on Garth are being held hostage in a conflict that could affect the fate of the entire Five Galaxies. As a ragtag group of freedom fighters wage a desperate guerilla war, their only hope for victory lies in unravelling the elusive truth behind the legend of a hidden native species that could prove a powerful ally.

The Uplift War provides entertainment in the grandest tradition of science fiction, with exotic aliens, visionary action, and universe-encompassing mysteries.

I found this entry much better than the previous two. David Brin's writing definitely improved over time.

Better than the first book

Great book. I read this book in back in the 1980's and had to add it to my Audible collection. The audio book really brought the characters to life.

One of Brin's best.

A little long and meandering, but good overall. Very good performance given the numerous voices and species.

The imagined galactic races and character development are amazing and the narrator’s voice representations are most incredible!

Brin is brilliant

What made the experience of listening to The Uplift War the most enjoyable?
The mild hints the story drops regarding the events of Startide Rising made me smile; Startide was a better book, but not by too much.

What did you like best about this story?
The Uplift mechanic is lovely, and this book cleverly explored it from a more human perspective than Startide. However, the novelty of Startide is more powerful.

A Satisfying Continuation

I read this first when it came out in paperback long, long ago. All I remembered about it from that reading is that I was disappointed that it did not follow the Streaker and/or Tom Orly. Because of that, I never reread it over the years until now. That said, I found this book better than I expected. It's a little bit too much like when the Ewoks battle Imperial Storm Troopers, but otherwise it is a fun adventure in the Uplift Universe. Fortunately there are only four main point-of-view characters (plus a few galactics), so it doesn't suffer as much from muti-PoV-itis as some of the other Uplift books -- a definite plus. The galactics are not as fun as they were in Startide Rising, though the two protagonist galactics are both good characters. Also nice is that this is a self-contained novel; it has a beginning and an end (unlike the next Uplift book).

better than I remembered

A fantastic addition to the Startide Rising universe!
Fun, well narrated tale of intergalactic intrigue sprinkled with Brin’s brand of science and social commentary.

Great story

What an awesome trilogy. By the third installment the whole thing is on fire, great writting - marred only by occassional clunky narrative device, outstanding narration and what a story. Inspiring, spellbinding speculative fiction. This lifts Brin into the realm of the great masters: Clarke, Silversberg, Heinlien, Asimov.

BIG ENTHUSIASTIC WOW

A very original sci-fi concept (uplift), very good story and good narration.

Very good book. Definitely worth listening to...
