THE LION OF COMARRE
Set towards the close of the 26th century, the story of a mysterious city, a youth of great courage and a lion of peculiar ability . . .
AGAINST THE FALL OF NIGHT
A novel set in the almost unimaginably remote future – the embryo work for Clarke’s later masterpiece The City and the Stars.
'The visions are vivid, like the writing; even in his early period Clarke was a master'
