I think it has some amazing aliens some amazing sci-fi concept the zones of thought I think is really cool I think for me the story and the characters I didn't quite connect to as much as I hoped
5 HARD SCI-FI and 5 SOFT SCI-FI Books to Read
I found this book to be very funny the conversation between these kind of neurotic paranoid characters I had me giggling throughout the first half of the book but then kind of the reality sort of starts to set in things start to get a little bit weird and this book really hit me emotionally.
I'm a big Arthur C Clarke fan childhood's end is my favorite
I thought children of time was great for the first two thirds and then just blew me away in the final third
this was such an emotional roller coaster for me I cannot think of a time all right I'm finally admitting it I've denied on the channel many times that I cried at the End of This Book I cried okay
I don't know if she watched my top 10 sci-fi covers of all time with Hyperion literally number one my favorite color ever
I'm a big Arthur C Clarke fan childhood's end is my favorite but I also very much like Rama
it was very interesting to put myself in that position when you mentioned kind of like feeling like you were there with Charlie this is definitely a book that I can feel like you can connect with the main character or if not connect sort of place yourself in that position and kind of a very interesting kind of hypotheticals to play out
I love children of time and I liked shards of Earth
Slaughterhouse Five is kind of a bit heavy a bit sad whereas this one's like a little bit all over the place absurd still a bit sad but like funny and weird and so yeah I think that those are good places for a Sci-Fi fan to start
I think one of the best first Contact stories that the motives some of the most interesting aliens I've ever read felt like the story ran out a little bit of steam towards the back end
there is a chapter in this book where he describes an alien life form called the harmonians harmoniums and it's possibly my favorite thing that I've ever read I reread it about once a year
I found that while the plot doesn't move at a rapid Pace the Sci-Fi contents aren't too crazy I was really emotionally impacted by the decisions that I think Define us as individuals as well as what defines us as a society
