Thinking back to the handful of Arthur C. Clarke books I've read, I'd say this describes them all perfectly. He has amazing ideas and describes them really well, but the "plots" are virtually nonexistent. At least, thinking back, all I can remember are the ideas, and not a single plot.
The worst is probably Rendezvous with Rama, where the entire plot is following explorers as they explore an abandoned alien space ship and catalog everything they learn.
