Anything written by Clarke and Gentry Lee - Cradle is one of the worst things I've ever ready by an SF grand master..

Ha! You beat me to it! I was going to say Clarke and Lee's Rama sequels. Rendezvous with Rama is and probably will continue to be one of my favorite scifi books. IMHO, it captures almost perfectly what that type of scifi is supposed to be. Rama II and the rest are complete and total crap. Not even in the spirit of the first book!
