Book Overview

In the spellbinding Arthur C. Clarke tradition, here is an exhilarating adventure into the hearts of both the Universe and mankind . . .

By the twenty-third century Earth has already had two encounters with massive, mysterious robotic spacecraft from beyond our solar system--the incontestable proof of an alien technology that far exceeds our own. Now three human cosmonauts are trapped aboard a labyrinthine Raman vessel, where it will...

DON'T LISTEN TO BAD REVIEWS- THIS SERIES IS A MASTERPIECE!

Anyone who rates the Rama series badly has absolutly no imagination or curiosity. I'm an avid sci-fi reader and the Rama series is one of my favorites. If you want mystery and action along with great characters and and story telling than look no further.

Very shocked at the bad reviews.

I can't believe this book got such bad reviews. People say say they can't believe things would be a lot like they are now 300 years from now. While I do think that it's unrealistic to say we won't have a great deal of technological abvancments I think the authors are making a point about human nature. If you've read Rama Reaveled then what I think the whole series is tring to tell us is that although we may be an intelligent race If we continue to fight omust ourselves and keep hating people because of race or sex or because of a deases we will never advance to our highest potential.

Amazing

This story was fantastic. There were a few boring parts, like the second chapter in "Rendevous on Mars". The story starts off with Nicole de Jardin's point-of-view. During this time, she gives birth to five children: Simone, Katie, Benjy, Patrick and Ellie. The only humans are Nicole and the children and Richard Wakefield (Simone, Katie and Ellie's father) and Micheal O'Toole (Benjy and Patrick's father). As Rama speeds towards the constellation Sirrus, they encounter many hardships, including mental-breakdown and Octospiders. As a thirteen year old child, I was astounded. Arthur is an awesome writer. I'm going to read "Rama Revealed" next. I suggest you read the series and try the computer game.

Beautiful beyond description. (But I'll try.)

As years pass on board Rama and a family develops amidst the alien landscape, you begin to know and love the characters, to feel their pain, and know their joy, so real are they portrayed with such depth. And yet more mysteries about Rama are revealed while others created. Alien creatures and climactic events. Beyond comparison.

Garden offers an insightful look at our true nature.

In this sequel to Rama II the authors offer tremendous insight into the true nature of humankind. It is an exploration into values as well as a socio-political strife which has been at the core of human history. The book is essential reading for the "Rama"fan and provocative for the any intelligent being who ponders their existence in the universe.
