Publisher Notes

Author of 2001: A Space Odyssey, Childhood's End, The City and the Stars, and the Hugo and Nebula-winning Rendezvous with Rama, Arthur C. Clarke is one of the greatest science fiction writers of the century, and surely the most celebrated science fiction author alive. He is-with H. G. Wells, Isaac Asimov, and Robert A. Heinlein-one of the writers who define science fiction in our time.

Now Clarke has cooperated in the preparation of a massive definitive edition of his collected shorter works. From the early work like "Rescue Party" and "The Lion of Comarre," through to classics like "The Star," "Earthlight," "The Nine Billion Names of God," and "The Sentinel" (a kernel of the later novel and movie, 2001: A Space Odyssey), all the way to later work like "A Meeting with Medusa" and "The Hammer of God," this immense volume encapsulates one of the great science fiction careers of all time.

Media Reviews

"Clarke brings clarity. He explores the wonders that science reveals, and there are almost always twists at the end of tales....[A]t times you almost feel weightless reading them."
