A review by valtimke
Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke

3.0

The plot was engaging and driven by curiosity for the identities of the Overlords, but I found all of the characters except for maybe Jan to be flat. They had no personalities, really, and they all blended together. About halfway through I felt myself feeling slumpy with it, but I pushed on, and the end was worth it. I'm glad that I read it, as it is a science fiction classic, but this just wasn't a favorite.
