One of the most prolific science fiction writers in history, Arthur C. Clarke began publishing science fiction in the 1930s and has now, nearly 60 years later, completed 3001, the fourth novel in the Odyssey series. This study, the only one on his recent work, features detailed analyses of his nine most recent novels within the context of his literary canon. The novels discussed are Rendezvous with Rama, Imperial Earth, The Fountains of Paradise, 2010: Odyssey Two, The Songs of the Distant Earth, 2061: Odyssey Three, Ghost from the Grand Banks, The Hammer of God and 3001: The Final Odyssey. The intention of this study is to provide both conventional and alternative readings so that students and readers who love Clarke's fiction can develop their critical skills.
