I've been on "break" from Garden of Rama for over a year now. That book went off the fucking rails.
One of the things that made me go on a break was when the earth side group were assigned quarters and Clarke writes something like "This is going to go bad", my response was okay I'll just read some other book then. And this is after making it through the (first?) teenage bride stuff, a bit too republican for my taste.
And the sigh of relief when I read Dune, "A writer that knows how to tell a story!".
