(1 review)

A simplified version of a novel by Arthur C. Clarke. In the year 2131, a fast-moving object is detected heading for Earth. Not a dead lump of rock but a huge hollow cylinder spinning along a planned trajectory. Who or what built "Rama" and why?.

Jens Finkhäuser reviewed Rendezvous with Rama by Arthur C. Clarke (Rama, #1)

I'd rate it 50/50...

3 stars

... that is, it's 50% description of a docking maneuver, and 50% setup for an exciting book.

I guess that makes it one of those books you should read once, but I didn't manage to enjoy it much.
