I like the novel, but I probably prefer the movie as the more "official" depiction. Jupiter and an orbiting monolith is more interesting than Saturn and a monolith on "Japetus" in my book.
In the first draft of Conspiracy Wars, there was a dialog something like this:
Quote:
Emily:Iapetus where the monolith was in 2001.
Lana: Don't you mean Japetus?
But I cut it because it added nothing to the story
