Book excerpt: The classic Clarke tales The Lion of Comarre and A Fall of Moondust, together for the first time! A Fall of Moondust: Time is running out for the passengers and crew of the tourist-cruiser Selene, incarcerated in a sea of choking lunar dust. On the surface, her rescuers find their resources stretched to the limit by the pitiless and unpredictable conditions of a totally alien environment. The Lion of Comarre: In the far-flung future, one city of extraordinary means was built on Earth, Comarre, and it is rumored to still exist. None but a few know of its location and they hold it secret afraid the knowledge would subvert society. A young man with great prospects and no worries in the world gives them all up to hunt for the fabled city, and what he finds is something mankind has only dreamed of. Sir Arthur C. Clarke is science fiction's most famous prognosticator of future technologies and one of the most prolific authors of the modern age in almost any genre. His works, including the seminal 2001: A Space Odyssey, have inspired modern advances and an entire generation of writers, scientists, and astronauts.
