Starts out as old-fashioned military SF, and then it quickly becomes a truly outstanding first contact story. The aliens are truly alien, as self-serving and prone to deception as humans, but not more evil than humans themselves. More intelligent in some ways, filled with potential and also unnerving. A big SF classic, still influential. Very entertaining, too. ( ) I think I'm gettin old... and stuff. It's tiresome to read true hardcore sci-fi where action is mere mote in the eye of the world. So much descriptions, so many explanations, tons of details, endless right and wrong guesses... And much of it ending been just a time filler between some twisting points of story. Even if it's very good and stylish book, I can only admit that it's not my kind of thing. Highly celebrated novel, somewhat disappointed. Nice premise, great conclusion, but feels, reading today, very dated. One only female character who was just the typical Princess Leia. The Prince, cliched. Loved their Inferno novel. Really enjoyed the Ringworld novels. Maybe I would have enjoyed this if I had been reading it around the time I was reading and thoroughly enjoying Heinlein.

In the year 3016, the Second Empire of Man spans hundreds of star systems, thanks to the faster-than-light Alderson Drive. No other intelligent beings have ever been encountered, not until a light sail probe enters a human system carrying a dead alien. The probe is traced to the Mote, an isolated star in a thick dust cloud, and an expedition is dispatched. In the Mote the humans find an ancient civilization--at least one million years old--that has always been bottled up in their cloistered solar system for lack of a star drive. The Moties are welcoming and kind, yet rather evasive about certain aspects of their society. It seems the Moties have a dark problem, one they've been unable to solve in over a million years.
