Rendezvous with Rama - Arthur C Clark














I picked up this book on a Sc-Fi recommendation and with the success of 2001 Space Odyssey, it seemed like a good bet. The author touches on the topic of First contact with the human race, which isn't a new concept but the writing style is where this one takes the cake.



 I expected this to be a predictable first contact story with some twists and turns but its not. Theres a great amount of detail around a cylindrical object thats approaching the solar system thats soon determined to be artificial. Then the author takes you on a ride through the investigation in great detail and true laws of physics in place that make you rethink your own world and assumptions.

I loved reading this book and it does tend to get slow at times due to the exorbitant amount of details but still a fun read.
