Have you ever read any of this books?

If so, which ones?

I have read many of his books.

I remember seeing Stanley Kubrick's film 2001 A Space Odyssey in the late 1960's as a kid. I did not understand the movie........................, until I read the Arthur C. Clarke's book.

The book made the movie make sense. The book was followed up with three sequels, 2010, 2061 and 3001. There is also a movie sequel, 2010.

Clarke could definitely tell stories that cause one to think way beyond daily life.

    I saw 2001 some years ago, and I must not have been in the right mood since it took me three nights to get through it.

    I did write to ACC to get an autograph many years ago (he replied). He lived in Singapore, supposedly due to some legal issues he had back in the UK.

    That is the sum of my experience with ACC. :)
