ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke opens with the appearance of enormous, silent ships above Earth’s major cities, signaling the arrival of the technologically advanced Overlords. Led by Supervisor Karellen, these beings assume control of global affairs, ushering in an era of peace and prosperity, while also generating anxieties regarding human autonomy. The story explores the complex dynamics between the Overlords and humanity, featuring the Freedom League’s efforts to champion human self-determination and question the Overlords' intentions. The narrative delves into themes of control, cultural change, human curiosity, and the impact of a vastly superior civilization on a developing race. It also examines the personal challenges faced by individuals as they try to understand the Overlords' true motives and the ramifications for humanity’s future.
