Book Reviews of 2001: A Space Odyssey
Book Review: "My God, it's full of stars!"
Summary: 5 Stars
There is no other science fiction novel as good or as compelling as 2001 A Space Odyssey. I first saw the movie when I was young and I read the book last year. Every now and then, there is a science fiction novel or story with such description and intelligence that it becomes a legend in which lives in our society (The Time Machine, The War of the Worlds, A Sound of Thunder, etc.). Even from the first page, I knew it would be great. That's just an understatement. Even if you are not a science fiction fan, I recommend this to anyone. It has got to be the greatest book I have ever read. After reading 2001, you could read 2010, but to me, 2010 does not match up to 2001. I guess you can say you get spoiled after reading 2001. Read this! It is the science fiction novel by which every other novel is judged.
