Clarke A.C. Childhoods End
Childhoods End is one of the defining legacies of Arthur C. Clarke, the author of 2001: A Space Odyssey and many other groundbreaking works. Since its publication in 1953, this prescient novel about first contact gone wrong has come to be regarded not only as a science fiction classic but as a literary thriller of the highest order. Spaceships have suddenly appeared in the skies above every city on the planet. Inside is an intellectually, technologically, and militarily superior alien race known as the Overlords. At first, their demands seem benevolent: unify Earth, eliminate poverty, end war. But at what cost? To those who resist, its clear that the Overlords have an agenda of their own. Has their arrival marked the end of humankind . . . or the beginning?

Baxter Stephen Evolution
The natural heir to Arthur C. Clarke dramatises the epic story of evolution. A novel that tells the story of life on Earth... They first fought for life when dinosaurs dominated the Earth. And, down through the countless millennia, they have survived. The primates. This is their story. They walked out of the forests, they became human, they covered the Earth, they fell. But they have survived and they have evolved. Evolution follows the ebb and flow of one stream in the great river of DNA. Darwinian evolution is dramatised as a constant life and death struggle, a heroic story of endurance. It is a story that transcends generations, species, mankind and, in the end, the Earth itself.

Clarke A. 2061. Odyssey Three
Arthur C. Clarkes 2061: Odyssey Three is truly a masterful elaboration on one mans epic vision of the universe. Only rarely does a novelist weave a tapestry so compelling that it captures the imagination of the entire world. But that is precisely what Arthur C. Clarke accomplished with 2001: A Space Odyssey. It is even more unusual that an author is able to complement so well-received an invention with an equally successful sequel. But Arthur C. Clarkes 2010: Odyssey Two enthralled a huge audience worldwide. Now, in 2061: Odyssey Three, Arthur C. Clarke revisits the most famous future ever imagined, as two expeditions into space are inextricably tangled by human necessity and the immutable laws of physics. And Heywood Floyd, survivor of two previous encounters with the mysterious monoliths, must once again confront Dave Bowman--or whatever Bowman has become--a newly independent HAL, and the power of an alien race that has decided Mankind is to play a part in the evolution of the galaxy whether it wishes to or not.
