it was amazing

Absolutely superb. Very compelling story, satisfying wrap-up to the main Riverworld saga and mystery. Fascinating in its relevance to events in today's news. You can't watch the documentary about the Ohio auto glass workers at Fuyao without thinking about the events transpiring all over the Riverworld. Amazing tales of the human condition, personality, and cultures working together toward a common goal. If you've ever trekked, backpacked, canoed, portaged, climbed ... you'll appreciate this story.
My only peeve with it was it got a bit long-winded, distracted during a couple adventures when it presented a dossier on each historical personage. That said, the book was still a worthy read.
