À propos de cet audio

The sequel to Rendezvous with Rama: the only SF novel to sweep all SF awards and one of the best sellers of all time.

In 2130, an alien spaceship, Rama, entered our solar system. The first product of an alien civilisation to be encountered by man, it revealed many wonders to mankind; but most of its mysteries remained unsolved.…

Sixty-six years later, a second approaching spacecraft was detected; four years on, the Ramans are definitely returning. But this time, Earth is ready. And maybe now, with the arrival of Rama II, some of the questions posed by Rama will at last be answered.

Arthur C. Clarke was born in Minehead, in 1917. During the Second World War he served as an RAF radar instructor, rising to the rank of Flight-Lieutenant. After the war he won a BSc in physics and mathematics with first-class honours from King's College, London. One of the most respected of all science-fiction writers, he also won Kalinga Prize, The Aviation Space-Writers' Prize, and The Westinghouse Science Writing Prize. He shared an OSCAR nomination with Stanley Kubrick for the screenplay of 2001: A Space Odyssey, which was based on his story, The Sentinel. He lived in Sri Lanka from 1956 until his death in 2008.

While this is a good story and I do recommend it as part of the series, it doesn’t add too much to the first book. Lots of filler and character development but little in the way of advancing the main story line.

More adventures in Rama

The story however is more intrigue than revelation of Rama's secrets. Just a few more mysteries.

Narration is far better than Rama 1.

it was a bit of a slow start for me, but midway it really pick up. The performer is very good with the intonation and the flow. I'm curious to hear what's next.

Psyche and exploration

The storytelling often felt like it was too bloated but still managed to deliver an interesting follow up to the original story

Not as good as Rama I but still very enjoyable

If you expect a story of exploration and answers to the first book you will sadly be dissapointed. Don't bother reading. nothing interesting happens until you are about 7 hours into the book and then it's just for a brief moment. Women characters are written poorly and they are so dull and boring that you really just want something bad to happen to them. The women explorers are made out to be dumb silly women with their drama. This book seems to be a completely different take on the first book that I was really disappointed and glad when it was finished.

I was hoping it would get better, but it didn't

I didn't realize until after I started listening that this story is NOT written by Arthur C. Clarke and it really shows! Too much personal experience not enough RAMA... the author used Rama as a background instead of the story.. trying to finish as I do like the narrator but not sure I will be able to continue stomaching the personality dramas going on here....

Definitely NOT Clarke

I didn't realize when I bought this book, but it was actually co-authored with Arthur C Clark based on his classic Rendezvous with Rama. Unfortunately it shows. The writing is just not the same, it focuses much more on some fairly silly interpersonal issues rather than continuing with the tale of exploration and discovery where Rendezvous leaves off. I was disappointed, and I'm lot sure if I'll continue onto with the Rama series.

The narration, however, is very good.

Not a true sequel
