About this listen

Years after the appearance in the solar system of the immense, deserted spaceship, Rama, a second craft arrived, destined to become home for a group of human colonists. But now the colony has become a brutal dictatorship, terrorizing its own inhabitants. Nicole Wakefield, condemned to death for treason, has escaped to New York. There she is reunited with her husband, but pursuit is not far behind and they are forced to flee to the subterranean corridors of New York inhabited by the menacing octospiders. So begins the greatest adventure of the Rama cycle, a story of massive scope and extraordinary revelations.

Arthur C. Clarke was born in Minehead in 1917. During the Second World War he served as an RAF radar instructor, rising to the rank of Flight-Lieutenant. After the war he won a BSc in physics and mathematics with first class honours from King's College, London. One of the most respected of all science-fiction writers, he also won Kalinga Prize, The Aviation Space-Writers Prize and The Westinghouse Science Writing Prize. He shared an OSCAR nomination with Stanley Kubrick for the screenplay of 2001: A Space Odyssey, which was based on his story, 'The Sentinel'. He lived in Sri Lanka from 1956 until his death in 2008.

Wonderful story, superb narator, it has been a long journey through all 4 books and although I thought it lost its way a little towards the end of the 3rd book (the Garden of Rama) this final chapter made it all worth while and with such an unforgettable ending.

Wonderful!

Long winded and disappointing... both this third as well as the second book. The first book created a strong foundation for sequels, but the second and third books wasted the opportunity. Disappointing...

A good conclusion to the series with a great narrator, as always - it's a worthy listen if you've heard the others.

Everything must end - but you will understand.
