Earth has become a Utopia, guided by a strange unseen people from
outer space whose staggering powers have eradicated war, cruelty,
poverty and racial inequality. When the 'Overlords' finally reveal
themselves, their horrific form makes little impression. Then comes
the sign that the Overlords have been waiting for. A child begins
to dream strangely - and develops remarkable powers. Soon this
happens to every child - and the truth of the Overlords' mission is
finally revealed to the human race. . . A classic of the science
fiction genre, Childhood's End is an intelligent, beautifully
written exploration of what it means to be human from the
inimitable Arthur C. Clarke. Now adapted as a three-part miniseries
on Sky.
