A review by goobearmilltato
The Hammer of God by Arthur C. Clarke

4.0

The plot of this book may be that of a generic hollywood action film -- an asteroid hurtling toward Earth, ready to destroy humanity as we know it -- but Clarke solves problems in his own way. I kept guessing at how the characters were going to get out of situations and I was never right. Even when the typical Hollywood solution comes, it doesn't actually work out like it would in a movie. Pretty entertaining and short enough that it's a no-brainer quick read.
