I started reading Arthur C. Clarke’s Rendezvous with Rama. I’m having a hard time with it. I like the idea of the book, but it’s just not going anywhere. It’s like a slice of life style book with a sci-fi setting.
I liked the book, but it’s been a little while since I read it. It sits squarely in the First Contact and Big Dumb Object tropes, but it definitely feels like an older book. It helps that it’s not super long.
Had the same impression. Haven’t tried a lot of Clark. Maybe he’s just like that. Read RwR right after ʻOumuamua blew through a few years back and folks made comparisons.
