Have any of you read the awesome Rama series by Arthur C Clarke.

I'd love to see one of those cylindrical Rama spacecraft as I explore the universe. :D

I've read the whole series.

The first book was one of the first SF books I had ever read, and has left a lasting impression on me. I still re-read it on occasion.

Oddly enough, entering a station reminds me somewhat of how I imagined being inside Rama must have looked, with the surface arching overhead.

I've read them many times, the interier of the stations always put me in mind of rama.
