EON, by Greg Bear

Architect’s Rendezvous With Rama recommendation got me to thinking about this. It’s similar (in a general way), but takes the story in a much different direction. I love the way the sequel, Eternity, ends up – very Clarke 3001-ish.

I was lucky enough to sit in with a class Audra took where they got to talk to Greg Bear – on the phone – and he seems like a really interesting guy, too.
