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.
