It is so amazing how an author like Arthur C. Clarke can create a story so believable, yet so obviously untrue! 2001: A Space Odyssey is a great book that is right up my alley, and I am so incredibly glad I picked it up. I can most definitely see myself giving it a re read sometime in the near future.

"When Earth was tamed and tranquil, and perhaps a little tired, there would still be scope for those who loved freedom, for the tough pioneers, the restless adventurers. But their tools would not be ax and gun and canoe and wagon; they would be nuclear power plant and plasma drive and hydroponic farm. The time was fast approaching when Earth, like all mothers, must say farewell to her children."
Brilliant descriptions of Space, unexpected ending.
I love the movie, but it makes so much more sense now. I feel stupid for saying that, but it’s true: I misapprehended and completely missed a few things (a few important things) in the movie. Reading this was a little like reading the lyrics to a song you think you know and you find out they were saying “Deuce” not “Douche.” I’m glad I know now!

A very good listen to. About man and the humanity. And AI before A.I was a thing which I thought was great.
Klassikko muutamalla sovinistisella haituvalla, jotka oli helppo puhaltaa pois tieltä häiritsemästä. Kirja, joka ei ehkä minulle opettanut mitään erityistä tai antanut oivalluksia ihmisyydestä, mutta oli tällaisenaan varsin nauttiva matka avaruuden tiloissa. Selittää osiltaan (the) elokuvaa ja silti on oma kokonaisuutensa, vaikka kirjoitettu yhdessä elokuvan (käsikirjoituksen) kanssa. Scifijännäri, joka parani arvoituksellista loppuaan kohti.
