This one bums me out. One of my favourite authors, and his 'City and the Stars' ranks up there with 'Dune' as the two books that turned me in to a big Sci-Fi geek. :(

Amen. Good author.

Godspeed, Mr. Clark.

One of the pinnacle authors of my voracious childhood reading habit. Sorry to see him go. R.I.P. Sir Arthur
