While I enjoyed this book, I don't think it was as approachable as the more recent movie adaptation. The book has a different focus, spending a lot of time on what happens when humanity encounters something entirely unfamiliar and unreadable. It's an interesting work, but if you're expecting to see the plot of the George Clunie movie, you'll be disappointed. (And if you're expecting to see the 1970's Soviet movie adaptation, I can't give you any guidance. All I remember from that are the monotonous driving sequences.)
