Download from RapidGatorThe author of more than fifty books, with over 15 million copies in print, Arthur C. Clarke is one of the most distinguished figures in modern science and science fiction. He is the inventor of the concept of the communications satellite, a past Chairman of the British Interplanetary Society and a member of the Academy of Astronomics. His novel Rendezvous with Rama was the winner of science fiction's three highest honours: the Hugo, Nebula and John W. Campbell awards. His two 'Odyssey' novels, 2001: A Space Odyssey and 2010: Odyssey Two, were both major international bestsellers.
The Sentinel is a magnificent collection of Arthur C. Clarke's finest shorter fiction spanning four decades. Included here, along with revealing new introductions are The Sentinel (the story that inspired 2001),Guardian Angel (the rarely-glimpsed work that gave birth to Childhood's End),The Songs of Distant Earth, a brilliant, haunting story of first contact with an alien world, and other outstanding stories of vaulting imagination.
