All Editions of Cradle. 1990, Mass-market paperback. 1989, Mass-market paperback. Books by Arthur Charles Clarke. Related Books. Rendezvous with Rama. The Fountains of Paradise. Customer Reviews. A rare collaboration. Die hard traditional Arthur Clarke fans will probably be put off a bit by the essentialy gratuitous sex details that, in my opinion, do not add significantly to the story development, but seem to have been added to increase sales to a post-1970s American audience. It is almost possible to discern which chapters were written by which author. Except for those distractions, it still very much bears the stamp of Clarke's genius as the seeminghly disparate pieces of this cosmic SF adventure "bolero" come together like seperate trains moving through a switchyard maze to the inevitible collision at the "Aha moment" where it all makes sense. Over all, a very good read. Cradle (1988) Unfortunately, while this book has an interesting premise, the characterisation is pathetic. The way people in this book talk and think is totally unbelievable. I gave up on it well before the 100 page point. Yesterday (11/02/06) during lunch, I finished my most recent book: Cradle, by Arthur C. Clarke and Genry Lee. This is same team that wrote the last 3/4 of the Rama series (following Clarke's standalone classic, Rendevous With Rama). Those were good books. Cradle, which was written a couple of years before the Rama sequels, is not. Not that it's a terribly bad book. I was entertained for almost all of the 408 pages. But I'd never read it again. The book is basically a character study on the 3 protagonists, with the odd chapter of sci-fi alien stuff thrown in every hundred pages or so. Contrary to most reviews I've read, I actually found the characters engaging, and the sci-fi bits to be clunky and confusing. What little plot there is involves Carol (a reporter) hunting down a lost Navy missile somewhere off the Florida Keys. To do this, she charters a boat run by Nick and Troy. They go diving and find something odd, butt heads with some rival treasure hunters, and try to avoid the Navy. It's not as exciting as it sounds. Every main character has had one emotionally-traumatic experience in their past, and the authors take a chapter or two out of the story to replay this. Most maddening is the Navy Commander: his personal life and problems are dwelt on perhaps more so than any of the protagonists, and yet he has almost zero impact on the story. At first, the dialogue felt forced an unnatural, but either it got better, or I just grew accustomed to it. The aliens' side of the story is told in 3 or so single-chapter chunks, spaced out regularly throughout the book. But they're confusing, written in terms that manage to sound advanced yet wholly generic at the same time, and go on far too long for the scant information they provide. Eventually, near the end of the book, there's interaction between the aliens and the main characters, but you can already tell that there's not enough book left for anything to really happen. And it doesn't. The book even manages to end abruptly, after dragging on and on, plot-wise. No resolution or denouement; just the climax, and then "The End". Heck, my copy ends on the back of the last page, which means I hit the last sentence in the book, and then: back cover. Rather jarring, to tell the truth. Like I mentioned earlier, though, the characters were decent. Even if they were annoying or artificial-feeling to begin with, I got wrapped up in their adventures and cared about what happened to them, even if their stories didn't actually go anywhere. I won't likely ever read this again, and I can't in good conscience recommend it. I'll give it 1.5 out of 5 stars. ( ) Cradle Summary Arthur C. Clarke. Everything you need to understand or teach Cradle by Arthur C. Clarke. Cradle Summary & Study Guide. Cradle Summary. The characters embody various social issues of modern urban life — the impact of strong career interests on personal life; the effects of divorce or other disrupted relationships on a person's ability to form meaningful, long-term bonds with others; the effects of unbridled drives for money, for sexual gratification, or for power over other people, and the effects of racial and gender stereotyping on people's lives and relationships.
