You can tell it's not Clarke!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cradle (Paperback)
I read it and it's a pity it isn't that good. Clarke's idea is fantastic and wonderful, yet it was Gentry Lee who wrote most of the book. (Since when did Arthur C. Clarke write about sex?) Good attempt, but Clarke should have written the whole thing.

Good but not brilliant,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cradle (Paperback)
Well, on reading this book, I can say that it is not like the Arthur Clarke I have come to know. You wouldn't normally find the f-word and sex in any Clarke novel. Nonetheless, it is an interesting and reasonably original idea, developed well, and with a truly inspiring ending which we should all take into our hearts. A good, readable yarn.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Breath taking - vivid - just pefect...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cradle (Paperback)
There's nothing much to say, Clarke is just one of the best science fiction writers ever. In the 'Cradle' he outlined a very interesting and realistic variation, slightly touching the dawn of the humanity itself. It's good and I can recommend to read it to everyone who likes realistic science fiction.
