About the Author:
‘Clarke’s simple, musical style never falters in this novel, which is a sobering yet far from bleak commentary on humanity’s longing for the stars. Highly recommended’

Clarke has written over fifty books, among which are the science fiction classics 2001, A Space Odyssey, Childhood’s End, The City and the Stars and Rendezvous With Rama.
