If you've never read any of the Rama sequels written by Gentry Lee, now is a really good time not to. The first one has a few nice bits (but so, so few), but they're so bad, and so badly written, and so undermine the magic and majesty of the first book, and the final revelation when we discover who actually built the Rama spacecraft is so hackneyed and underwhelming[1], that they're some of the only books I have genuinely regretted reading. And I've read some Piers Anthony and late era L. Ron Hubbard! I really have no idea what Clarke was thinking. [1] Spoiler rot13'd: Vg gheaf bhg gurl jrer ohvyg ol Tbq.
