Story : Another take on alien's arrival... it's a great one! One cylindrical shape comes into our solar system and astronauts and scientists are sent to investigate it. It was so weird to read this because I was expecting something else, like aliens and you know... aliens, but this is just a look at what other creaturesc can create. The last pages where Rama goes to that star, I was like ,,Newton seems like a baby now”. Also, the descriptions of the places inside Rama were great and there are even some intense scenes... I don't want to go to New York now.

Characters : We have a lot of people inside Rama and Norton is our main protagonist. He seems like a cool guy and he doesn't risk his people's lives, so that's good. The others are there... friends and co-workers. We don't find things about them or very little, so if someone died, I didn't really cared, except from Norton, of course. There are also scenes with politcal stuff... ehh, I've seen a lot of them so...

Overall : I am so curious about Rama 2, but it seems like this story has ended perfectly... idk, maybe I'll check it out!
