Arthur C Clarke is without question the world's best-known and most celebrated science-fiction writer. His career, spanning more than 60 years, is one of unequalled success. Clarke has always been celebrated for his clear prophetic vision, which is fully on display in this audiobook, but there are also many stories that show his imagination in full flight, to the distant future and to far-flung star systems.

Some of his earlier stories were a miss, but most of it were excellent. You could see his growth as an author. Clarke makes word paintings when he describes space. Highly recommended.

My only complaints are:
1) the audiobook merely mentions the chapter order, not the story titles. So weird, such an easy fix!
2) A few seconds pause at the end of each story would be nice, instead of immediately moving to the next story. Gives more time to soak in the endings, many of which are though provoking.

Great collection of stories by a great SciF author
