ReviewsThe New York Times - ItÆs been brought into the present (ClarkeÆs jumping-off point was the Cold War space race), but the depth and ambition are still there., Philadelphia Inquirer - The disturbing alien plot unfurls through a wondrous, hours-long act of dramatic magic that draws together elements from ancient religions and modern science. This is heady stuff--but it's relayed with such intensity it'll sweep you along. The last act is a gut punch., indieWIRE - Childhood's End is a successful adaptation of a much-beloved novel that will satisfy fans and newcomers alike.
