I rarely find myself engrossed in a book so much that I cannot put it down. This book however managed to do just that, but why is that?
Firstly, I really liked Clarke's style of writing. The way he describes the interior of Rama and everything else really got me excited. The characters, for the most part, I did not find very gripping. However, I didn't think that was that big of a problem.
The biggest reason for me liking this book so much however is the fact that it reminded me of an old (audio)book I listened to which I unfortunately forgot the name of. I believe though that it was part of the Perry Rhodan series.

All in all, I would definitely recommend this book to everyone who likes scifi, exploration and mystery!
