You could read the summary on Wikipedia and get as much out of it. Nothing mind-blowing.

I started in the AF reading a book called “Across The Sea of Stars”. It was a collection of short stories. Clark’s writing for

Nice story, but a bit predictable...except for the very end. Narration was excellent; easy to understand even while driving.

Entertaining

Rip roaring adventure, fantastic creatures, and just enough hard science. Great fun and thought provoking.

Classic Golden Age Story

One of those performances with overly zealous articulation at completely ordinary times, but flatlining at peak moments. Not too terrible, just distracting. The story is interesting enough.

Interesting story, inadequate reading performance

Story is interesting. The narration brings it down. It’s an odd style that seems very old and tired.

Bad Narrator

The story was fun. and I ending was interesting. I enjoy using my imagination.

Ending

A fun story full of wonder and intrigue. Some parts seemed to drag, but the second half seemed to pace itself nicely!

Fun story, great Performance

The ending of this story, while an interesting and lightly hinted at twist, bears no thematic relationship with the rest of the story, as far as I could discern. It's like the ending of a different story altogether. If I really stretch, I can see the future Clarke was alluding to from the protagonist's view, but this is far from sufficiently elucidated. After listening I assumed that this was an early work, but not so. In fact, it won awards. All hail Clarke.

The writing is enjoyable, the phenomena interesting and even fascinating, the forecast thought provoking. However, as a whole, it just doesn't gel.

I picked this up as a precursor to reading the "sequel" by Stephen Baxter and Alastair Reynolds. It was a fine example of a straight-up scifi short story written by a master of the craft. There simply was no one like Arthur C Clarke when it came to describing the technology of the future. He could pack more ideas into one sentence than many writers get into a whole chapter.

[I listened to this as an audio book read by Jonathan Davis, who did an excellent job]
