Arthur C. Clarke dies at 90

It’s a sad day for the science fiction community, and even the literary community at large because Arthur C. Clarke has died at the age of 90. He is probably best known for works like 2001: A Space Odyssey. Not too long ago I read his novel Time’s Eye which is based on the premise that the earth is suddenly carved up into different epochs of history. The result is groups of modern humans meet groups of ancient humans. A very interesting read, to say the least.

Clarke died in Sci Lanka, where he has lived for several decades. While I don’t think his shoes can ever be filled, his literary legacy will certainly live on!
