From Library Journal

In this fourth and final book in a 30-year publishing odyssey (following 2001, 2010, and 2061), 2001 astronaut Frank Poole, presumed dead and adrift in deep space near Jupiter, is recovered alive in the year 3001. Intent on saving humanity, he returns to Jupiter's satellite, Europa, to contact partner Dave Bowman, whose mind has become absorbed by a third monolith. Unfortunately, Clarke uses this book as a vehicle to showcase scientific ideas and breakthroughs at the expense of the story, spending too much time catching up Poole on what he's missed in the last 1000 years while failing to develop fully the current situation and rushing the conclusion. Recommended only to complete the quartet.
Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc. This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

From AudioFile

The fourth entry in the 2001 series features the return of Frank Poole, the astronaut apparently killed off by HAL, the sinister computer mind of the Jupiter-bound spaceship Discovery in the original book and movie. As the prescient tale unfolds, reader John Glover adds a palpable sense of wonder. He reads with deliberate emphasis and is exceedingly effective in presenting a solar system nearly a thousand years more advanced than Poole's own. Every detail seems to invoke a sort of subdued amazement in Glover's voice, enhanced by the well-selected classical music that occasionally punctuates the text. D.W.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Not quite as good as 2001 and 2061, but..., Jui 22 2004
For me, the compelling story of Franke Pool, long believed to be dead, being resurrected and communicating with the evolved consciousness of Dave Bowman within the monolith was just too good to pass up. I've added it to: Stranger in a Strange Land", "Puppet Masters", "Foundation", "2001", "2010", "Rendezvous with Rama", "Ringworld", all the "Star Trek" and "Star Wars" books, as well as books as new to the genre as "Advent of the Corps" and others.

3.0étoiles sur 5 In with a bang out with a whimper., Jui 18 2009
This book is kind of boring. Some spots were kind of interesting, but i read most of it on auto pilot. There is not a whole lot that happens, and the grande finale wasn't close to the scale of 2001 or 2010. This series should have stopped at 2001 in all honesty. This series came in with a bang and out with a whimper. I think i expected alot more from the ending of such a unique and imaginative series.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Conclusion of a Space Odyssey, Juil 14 2004
Par Joshua Koppel (Chicago, IL United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I recently finished Arthur C. Clarke's 3001: THE FINAL ODYSSEY. Like all of Clarke's later books, 3001 was very entertaining and also thought-provoking. This volume completes Clarke's speculative series. Each book stands alone in its time line but are related by common themes. They are really four versions of one story each told from a different point in the story. For instance, in 2010, Jupiter becomes a sun that burns for thousands of years. In 2061, the Jupiter-Sun burns out. In 3001 the Jupiter-Sun is still burning brightly.

Frank Poole's body has been found drifting in space and then revived. The last thing Poole remembers is being on a mission to Jupiter. Now he finds himself in a world a thousand years later. The ban keeping humanity away from Europa is still in effect. Because of Poole's relationship with Bowman, it is suggested that he might be able to land on Europa. Poole tries and is successful. He is contacted by what was Bowman. Later, in another contact Bowman brings distressing news. The nearest center of the intelligence that created the Monoliths is about 450 light-years away. That means that the events of 2001 have made it there, a decision has been reached and the answer is almost here. Bowman also knows of a link between the Monolith makers and a nova that has been puzzling scientists. It appears that a planet exploded and that triggered the nova. A similar fate might be in store for humanity. The forces of Earth, aided buy Halman (Bowman and HAL), put together a plan to survive. The most destructive computer viruses ever devised will be fed into the Monolith by Halman. The plan proves to be successful.

3001 is billed at the final Odyssey but it really opens up more questions than it answers. Now that Earth and Humanity have the attention of the Monolith builders how can we expect them to ignore us? I don't think they would but Clarke is done writing in this series. Maybe Gentry Lee will pick up the torch and continue the run. Another amusing aspect is the continual references to Star Trek. Clarke has also taken the opportunity to update some of the technology and history that Frank Poole should be familiar with. All in all it was another fine effort from possibly the greatest science fiction writer still writing. The book also contains an extensive afterword detailing scientific research, history and plot similarities with other projects. If you have read any of the other Odyssey books I recommend reading this one as well.
