+1 for The Time Odyssey series by Clarke and Baxter
Couldn't put it down.
Used to be Childhood's End, but it has been a long time since I last read it and its not available as an ePub. If Childhood's End is ever published in ePub, I hope they'll publish it with the original opening chapters, not the revised opening chapters that were inserted after the end of the Cold War.
Side note: Seeing all these great books listed reminds me of one of my pet peeves. I really wish someone would publish a reasonably complete collection of some of the classical SF authors in ePub. So many of Asimov's Robot books are not available, except as PDF. Most of Clarke's are also not available in ePub and, when I found the Rama series was available, it was annoying to discover that two of the books were only available in PDF format, not ePub. I've seen the same problem with several series from various authors in various other genres.
