THE CRADLE My book is called The Cradle by Arthur C. Clarke. The setting of this book takes place in sunny West Keys in Florida. The main characters in this book are Carol Dawson who is a Miami photojournalist. She takes pictures and writes stories about the pictures and sells them to the local news and newspaper. Nick Williams is a woman-hating Ivy League drop out who captains a boat for his own scuba diving company.
Troy Jefferson is Nick’s trusty crewman who aids Nick in the epic story. This also is Non-Fiction. To begin the book Carol travels to the West Keys to cover a whale beaching. She meets Nick and Troy who take her out further into the sea to cover the whale beaching.
Carol and Nick decide to dive where some dolphins are swimming. Everything goes good until they stumble upon a golden trident. Little did they know what it was and what power it possessed and what trouble came with it? They have several encounters with mobsters who thought it was a buried treasure, and the Navy who recently lost a new test missile around the area Nick and Carol found the golden trident. Nick, Carol, and Troy return to the spot where they found the golden troublemaker too look for any other secrets. Unfortunately they are caught in space ship which has settled there.
Confused, Nick and Carol wonder around the unknown in search of answers. They found more than they bargained for. They found the secrets of the world, but worse of all; they found the fate of man kind and everything around it. After several cliffhangers Nick and Carol meet the actual aliens themselves. After showing them what is going to happen to world in a few years Nick and Carol ask them to keep the trident. The aliens wager a deal with them.
The Term Paper on Nick Mcdon Book One People
What I did in my holidays There are some things that 17-year-old boys should not be able to do. They should not, say, be able to introduce themselves to girls that they believe they are in love with without their words coming out all together in a madman's gibber. They shouldn't be able to walk away from an argument sensibly persuaded of the other point of view. They shouldn't be able to avoid ...
Nick and Carol full fill the deal but the aliens don’t full theirs. The disappointed Nick and Carol hide the trident in a spot on the space ship, hoping that the aliens won’t find it. Nick and Carol are successful in their attempts to save man kind, and the world lives as it would today. The good points about the book were that it always left you hanging.
At the end of every page it left you wondering about what will happen on the next page. It had a very good story if you like the kind of story it is. Some bad points were that it talked too much about unimportant people. Also it talked too much about the main characters history and personal life.
I liked the good story line. I didn’t like excess detail on the main characters personal life. My opinion is that this is a very good book. I recommend it to anyone that is mature enough to read and understand it because it has some graphic detail and it’s hard to follow sometimes. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who likes a Sci-Fi/Mystery story line.
