Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke
(No Spoiler Review)
In 1968 Stanley Kubrick, the director who would later direct The Shining, stunned viewers with the masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey. 2001: A Space Odyssey was written by critically acclaimed writer Arthur C. Clarke. Clarke also wrote the book Childhood's End which was converted into a three part mini-series by SyFy. The series did well as did the book which was written over fifty years before the SyFy TV series debut.
The book is fairly clean. Other than a use of hell and a use of the n-word the book has no language. There is no sexual content, save a very brief reference to contraceptives in passing. People smoke and drink. Violence is not a huge concern, but I can't say much without spoiling the plot, so here it goes. Lots of people die, but it is never described. That's pretty much it.
