NP - Childhood's End

[kelber at mindspring.com]

One of my a favorite sci-fi novels when I was a kid. I recently gave it to my son to read, and he enjoyed it, but felt it was a little old-school.

I've seen the trailer for the upcoming SyFy adaptation, and it looks pretty bad. But I'll watch it anyway. I think it comes out in December.

HAs anyone watched The Whispers? The first season just ended. It was poorly written and acted, but it did have some Childhood's End-like elements in it.

I read this Arthur C. Clark novel on the advice of someone (I forget), and really liked it.  Now it seems SyFy is about to broadcast its 3-Episode mini-series.
