Book Description

Jan 12 1984
2001: A Space Odyssey shocked, amazed, and delighted millions in the late 1960s. An instant book and movie classic, its fame has grown over the years. Yet along with the almost universal acclaim, a host of questions has grown more insistent through the years, for example: who or what transformed Dave Bowman into the Star-Child? What alien purpose lay behind the monoliths on the Moon and out in space? What could drive HAL to kill the crew? Now all those questions and many more have been answered, in this stunning sequel to the international bestseller. Cosmic in sweep, eloquent in its depiction of Man's place in the Universe, and filled with the romance of space, this novel is a monumental achievement and a must-read for Arthur C. Clarke fans old and new.
"A daring romp through the solar system and a worthy successor to 2001."
Carl Sagan

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Jan 31 2013

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
A wonderful continuation of 2001. The scope of time covered by this series is immense. Detailed, while leaving elements open to interpretation.

2.0 out of 5 stars just read the first book Oct 3 2012
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The sequel adds almost nothing to the questions that the first books leaves in the open. Some minimal insight into the Bowman entity, but really just a glimpse of what such an entity should feel and think. Stick with the first book only, it won't further your understanding of the whole monolith plan. It is just a standard Sci-Fi tale

3.0 out of 5 stars an okay sequel Jun 12 2009
Format:Mass Market Paperback
If you were left baffled by 2001 this is worth a read. You might not get all your answers, but it will help shed some light on some of the mysteries surrounding the monoliths. The conclusion is pretty huge and worth the read.

4.0 out of 5 stars What's up with EPCOT?
In this case, I'd say that the film is better than the book. I have a few complaints about the book. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best SF book I have ever read
Although, it is part of a sequel, anyone could read it in the beginning.

It's a great story and very well-written.

And the ending is superb - with a philosophical touch. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars A Book that is Appeciated Differently by Different Readers

This 1982 book (that consists of 55 chapters plus an epilog), by Sir Arthur C. Clarke (who "said for years that [a sequel] was clearly impossible"), is really... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than 2001
This book was much better than 2001! It did take saturn out of the storyline, but that actually made it more interesting. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars A better book and movie
Clarke and Kubrick tried to make "the proverbial good science fiction movie" in 1968. It's hard to argue with success--the movie made a bundle, as did the book. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely worth reading
I have read 2001: A Space Odyssey and, of course, had to read the sequel. This book was written like 15 or so years after its prequel and its not the same. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars A good followup
Despite the introduction of new material and mind-boggling imaginings there is no way this sequel can top the original. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars As good as 2001!
After reading 2001, the greatest science fiction master piece ever, I was afraid of not having my expectations fulfilled in this sequel. But 2010 eventually did it. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars As good as ( in some ways better than) 2001
2010 is one of the rare cases where the sequel is almost as good as the original - in some ways it is even better.

There are some quibbles of course. Read more
