A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Few masters of science fiction have brought us glimpses of the near future as vividly as Arthur C. Clarke. It is the startling realism of his vision that has made classics of his novels, such as CHILDHOOD'S END and 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY. It has also made Clarke himself one of the genre's most successful writers. To commemorate the fast approaching arrival of one of the most notable dates in science fiction history comes this special anniversary edition of THE SENTINEL, a brilliant collection of Clarke's highest calibre short fiction.
