    Excellent story

    I thoroughly enjoyed this story. Flinx has been searching for his father since the first book in this series. In this particular story he concludes his search, but not in the way you might think. This is another excellent adventure by Alan Dean Foster. I enjoy his books because they are a refreshing change in that the story is just that, a story. The emphasis is on the hero and his problems. Many people are trying to kill him or capture him in order to 'fix' his powers so that he will become normal. How he overcomes his enemies is the plot of each story. If you can read the previous stories in the series, it is helpful, but not necessary. Each story can stand on its own.

    Flinx & Pip Ride Again!

    Go a-venturing with these two across the galaxy and you are in for a treat.
    Flinx is a complicated and likable character, and Pip is just the partner I'd want with me no matter what life throws my way. Part of me wants Flinx to find his destiny and save the Universe, and the other part wants the pair to roam forever and share their adventures.

    A space filler between stimulating books

    Was of good use while riding public transport during workdays. I consider this type of read to be entertaining trash. I'll probably purchase the next in this series for the same "escape from the background din" reason.

    The continuing saga

    As a enthusiast of Flix and Pip, this is a good chapter in the on-going series.

    Excellent Pip and Flinx thriller

    For years Flinx has searched the galaxy for his father, a man who sympathized with the goals and experiments of the Meliorare society, a group involved in evil eugenics. Flinx is experiment 12A of the society, the only experiment not mind wiped. He has powerful empathy abilities and is unable to die. When he comes close to death an unknown trigger arranges a rescue for him so that he can find the Tar-Aiym weapons platform disguised as a brown dwarf that only he can use. The weapon system is the only hope to stop the malevolence that is advancing beyond the Great Emptiness into Commonwealth space. Once it passes, everything in its path will be gone. Knowing all this Flinx and his minidrag Pip travel to Gestalt, a cold planet where his father might be staying. Avoiding a hitman and surviving near death experiences, he hopes to get the answers he has all his life tried to find. --- After a couple of lateral tales, PATRIMONY, the thirteenth Pip and Flinx thriller moves the prime quest forward, answering one of the key questions that has haunted the protagonist for years and it sets the stage for the final countdown in this mind blowing science fiction series. The native society on Gestalt, the Tlels are one of the nicest species Flinx has ever met as they co-exist peacefully with the humans on that planet. However, this entry belongs to Flinx as his saga takes a major leap forward. --- Harriet Klausner
