- Synopsis
- The Ramans return in the third saga of extraterrestrial contact--a riveting odyssey of a future Eden. The phenomenon begun in Rendezvous with Rama and carried on in Rama II continues in a masterpiece of technological extrapolation--an exhilarating adventure into the heart of both the universe and humankind. Arthur C. Clarke is without question the world's best-known and bestselling science fiction writer. He was born in Minehead, Somerset; the town recently hosted a Festival of Space in honour of his seventy-fifth birthday. He has won innumerable international awards for his fiction, for his scientific writing, and for his inspirational role as one of the chief prophets of the space age. His collaboration with Stanley Kubrick on 2001: A Space Odyssey set new standards for SF films. As the presenter of the TV series Arthur C. Clarke's Mysterious World and its successors, Clarke has become a household name. He lives in Sri Lanka. Gentry Lee combines two remarkable careers; on the one hand he is a screenwriter, whose credits include Carl Sagan's Cosmos series; on the other he is a distinguished space scientist, being chief scientist on NASA's' deep space exploration programme. His collaboration with Arthur C. Clarke was born when he was assigned by Warner Brothers to script the film of Cradle from Clarke's extensive treatment.
