Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant! My only regret was that this book wasn't twice as long. Superbly and beautifully written... you just don't see literature like this these days. While it's not a "page turner", per se, it was a steady, engrossing read that made me glad to reenter the world Clarke created over and over again. I'll be keeping my copy on the shelf with my Austen, Tolkien, and Bronte.
