an absolutely, ABSOLUTELY talented author.
His Childhood's End, written the year of my birth is what got me into Sci Fi......amazing man, and will be missed
It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City. New York City is itself a detective story...

Posted: 3/19/08 at 9:16amI'm sorry to hear of this. Good old Arthur C. So many wonderful stories. I wonder when/if anyone is going to film CHILDHOOD'S END, not that they'd do it justice so it is probably just as well.
