Really liked it and you couldn't tell it was a scifi book from the 70s (except for the part in the introductory timeline that said by 2008 the first interstellar drives were being tested )
I don't plan on reading the sequel as it got terrible reviews.
Now on to "Shadow of Freedom" by David Weber.

For me The Mote in God's Eye was excellent. I remember the sequel, The Gripping Hand, was not as good but still a good read. Outies the third in the series was written by Jerry Pournelle's daughter Jennifer and is the weakest of the three, in my opinion.
