Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The best collection ever of Arthur C. Clarkes short fiction, including the stories on which 2001: A Space Odyssey and Childhoods End were based. The Sentinel is a magnificent retrospective showcase of Arthur C. Clarkes finest shorter fiction. Spanning four decades of writing, this book includes many gems of a genius at the height of his powers. The title piece is the story that inspired 2001. Guardian Angel is a rarely anthologised work that gave birth to Childhoods End, and The Songs of Distant Earth is the original version of Clarkes own favourite novel. Along with other vaulting tales of imagination are fascinating introductions telling the history of each story from conception to completion. From one of the greatest science-fiction writers of all time. The Sentinel is one of those all-too-few collections that must be read, re-read, then treasured. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR001217186
