Just found out Arthur C. Clarke has passed away. He may have been one of the first sci-fi authors I had read. I believe the book was 2001: A space odyssey. Along with the Rama series, his were some of my favorite books in high school. He, along with Asimov, and Heinlein were my favorites. To be honest though, I had not read all of his works. Apparently, many feel that Childhood's End was his best work. Maybe that is one I should read.
Arthur C. Clarke also popularized the idea of geosynchronous communications satellites and space elevators.
