Riverworld

Philip José Farmer

On the enigmatic planet known as Riverworld, every human who has ever lived is resurrected along a single, impossibly vast river. Among them is Samuel Clemens, also known as Mark Twain, who embarks on an ambitious quest to build a grand riverboat and navigate the endless waterway to its mysterious source. To achieve this, he must forge unlikely alliances with historical figures ranging from Odysseus and Cyrano de Bergerac to Erik Bloodaxe and Hermann Göring, facing perilous journeys and treacherous betrayals. Their ultimate goal is to confront the enigmatic beings who control Riverworld and uncover the profound secrets of their existence.
