That's fair, Tom. I'm just not a fan of characters taking back seat to Idea. That cold "clinical" atmosphere is exactly what kept me from loving 2001 (book or movie). But I understand there are exceptions and that his story didn't lend itself well to sustained characterizations.
Children of Time had no such extenuating circumstances. The same main characters were present throughout. The people were clearly meant to be relevent to this story. I just found them thin and unmemorable. *shrug*
