Clifford D. Simak – Our Children’s Children

TYPE: Science Fiction

RATING: 6/10

REVIEW:

I have read science fiction stuff and then I’ve read some more. Maybe it’s just the story that doesn’t seem to attract me because there isn’t any kind of logic involved or even a great amount of mystery. For some unfathomable reason, this one fails to keep me gripped.

No doubt, the story is pretty entertaining. We have a whole lot of people coming in from the future. They say they are from a hundred years hence, when the humankind is destined to destruction because of some alien menace. They are pouring in by the hundreds, through time portals, and causing a whole lot of disruption to the world economy.

Rating: 8/10

Review:

This one would make it to the top if someone ever decided to make a movie out of it. It’s got all the right ingredients and all the right scandals.

Right from classified aircraft to NASA using lies to prevent private companies from entering into space, this novel challenges the mind. Just like the DaVinci Code was thought provoking, this one makes you think about things you always knew in a different light altogether.
