"Fantastic !"
After reading the RAMA trilogy I wanted to read some more ACC books. This book blew me away, I saw the movie, but the book is lots better and suddenly you understand everything :-).
Even after 35 years this is still a very good classic sci-fi book, although the story could have been written anno 2011... So it's timeless .
I wasn't bored a single time and found his way of writing fantastic. The narrator is also OK
There's also a great introduction, narrated by Arthur himself.
