Arthur C. Clarke

Author

Arthur C. Clarke was a British science fiction writer, science writer, and futurist who is one of the most important figures in the history of science fiction. Born in Somerset in 1917, he co-wrote the screenplay for 2001: A Space Odyssey with Stanley Kubrick and predicted the geostationary satellite. 2061: Odyssey Three is the third... novel in his Space Odyssey series — continuing the epic saga of humanity's encounter with an alien intelligence. Clarke's fiction is celebrated for its scientific rigour, its visionary imagination, and its sense of cosmic wonder. Clarke died in 2008. His audiobooks and books offer listeners and readers visionary science fiction from one of the genre's greatest masters — fiction that imagines the future with scientific precision and a sense of awe.
