'The Sentinel' is a magnificent retrospective showcase of Arthur C Clarke's finest shorter fiction. Spanning four decades of writing, this book includes many gems of a genius at the height of his powers. The title piece is the story that inspired '2001: A Space Odyssey'. 'Guardian Angel' is a rarely anthologised work that gave birth to 'Childhood's End' and 'The Songs of Distant Earth' is the original version of Clarke's own favourite novel.
Along with other vaulting tales of imagination are fascinating introductions telling the history of each story from conception to completion.
