Title: Waste of time and money!
Review: The odysey series takes its final downhill twist.This plot is hardly sufficient for a short story, the characters areshallow and there is no human conflict to be found. Besides the inertialess drive there is no any other idea in the book to bite into, and this morsel by itself is far too tiny and irrelevant to the story to carry the weight of this too long and boring book.Judging by past performance Mr. Clarke certainly knows how to produce better reading than that.The grade is not lower only due to the appendix which tries to justify the fiction by science.
