About the book

Clarke's Childhood's End imagines Earth transformed by the arrival of mysterious alien beings known as the Overlords. They bring peace and prosperity but refuse for decades to reveal their true appearance or ultimate purpose. The novel gradually becomes a profound exploration of human evolution, individuality and the future of the species.
