Book Reviews of Childhood's End (Del Rey Impact)
Book Review: A Sci fi Gem!
Summary: 4 Stars
This had been on my list of books to read for years, and after just finishing it I can say truly that I was not disappointed. If you have ever wondered where we are heading as a species, or what human civilization's ultimate potential may be then I highly suggest reading this book. It's very thought provoking and though it was written in 1953 it has aged very well. I give it four stars only because I wish it could have been a bit longer and some of the elements been more developed. That said, if you like sci-fi, the ideas and concepts and imagery contained within this novel makes it a must read!
