Arthur C Clarke died

One of the best, most likely the best, science fiction author just died. With him science fiction had a real meaning since his work was based into scientific facts, scientist himself!

And is so weird, a few weeks before I bought a book with a collection of Arthur Clarke’s very early works, short stories coming from early ‘30s and I was so amazed with his talent. Nothing to say about the 2001 of course, his magnificent Space Odyssey.

I think for the next few days so many people will write about him that it doesn’t matter what I say in this blog but there is one thing, Clarke’s books kept me alive, aware and questioning always! Rest in peace Sir Arthur!
