Earthlight & Other Stories: The Collected Stories of Arthur C. Clarke 1950-1951 Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Awesome straight up, old school sci fi. Set on the moon, Earth and its colonies (Mars and Venus) are on the brink of war over access to natural resources. I love to see what people in the '50s imagined the future might be like. "

" A little dated (people smoke cigarettes on the moon!) but still fun. "

" A cast of indistinguishable characters on a dated vision of the 21st-century Moon, in an alleged mystery that will have the reader asking "So what?" with every non-development. There are some quotable bits and a relatively exciting finale but overall this early Clarke work is a rare dud. "

" I have not read much AC Clark, so I can't say how this compares to his other books. This doesn't seem particularly clever or inspired. Like much sci fi in the 50s, it uses a futuristic scenario to explore the moral choices one faces in war. I don't think this book really sood the test of time. "

" Another fine moon based book. Much like "A Fall of Moondust." "

" As per usual, Clarke has interesting ideas and a book as exciting as bending cardboard. "

" Neat from a vintage sci-fi view. Including extensive science-y/physics-y details and an all-male cast. "

" Classic Clarke from the classic years of Sci Fi before Hobbit Envy destroyed the genre. This is Clarke at his thoughtful & ultimately optimistic best. A quick read for a plane flight! "
