What's the Name of That Book??? discussion

All I really remember about this book is that aliens came to earth and started giving people funny shaped cars and building houses for them but it was really just a cover for them taking over the world. The cover of the book had a huge black box like thing hovering over a wheat field. Any thoughts?

Was it "Childhood's End" by Arthur C. Clark?

No not that one thanks though ...I distinctly remember the cover as a wheat field with a big black block hovering above it , just can't get the name .

if the topic says solved im wondering why its in the unsovled folder?

Stephanie, And I'm wondering why the topic says solved. Maybe Scott found it and changed it but didn't change the folder & didn't let us know.

I wait to move threads to their appropriate solved folders until the original posters confirm in their threads that they've found the correct book.

If I can pm Scott I'll do so, including a link to this thread.

Thanks for noticing Stephanie!

I've messaged Scott. Thank you, Stephanie!

Scott says he found his book so I'll move the thread. Thanks for alert, Stephanie.

So was it The Visitors? Or something else? My curiosity has been piqued. :)

Sorry, Nikki, He didn't say. You could always send him a link to this thread and ask him. He has a public profile, replied to me promptly, and seemed nice. I should have asked and posted, I suppose.
