Title: A few interesting ideas, poorly executed
Review: As always, Clarke has a few interesting ideas, but his prose is deadly dull. Tone of the book was depressing. The story was bereft of anything valuable. Maybe the story would have been more interesting if humans would have at least attempted a war with the aliens. I gave my copy to the public library after I bought it. Yawn.
