2010: Odyssey Two, the 1982 sequel to Clarke's 1968 novel 2001: A Space Odyssey, though Clarke changed some elements of the story to align with the film version of 2001. From the inner front jacket flap - When 2001: A Space Odyssey first shocked, amazed, and delighted millions in the late 1960s, the novel was quickly recognized as a classic. Since then, its fame has grown steadily among the multitudes who have read the novel or seen the film based on it. Yet, along with almost universal acclaim, a host of questions has grown more insistent through the years: Who or what transformed Dave Bowman into the Star-Child? What purpose lay behind the transformation" What would become of the Star-Child? What alien purpose lay behind the monoliths on the Moon and out in space? What could drive HAL, a stable, intelligent computer, to kill the crew? Was HAL really insane? What happened to HAL and the spaceship Discovery after Dave Bowman disappeared? Would there be a sequel? Now all those questions and many mnore have been answered. In this stunning sequel to his internatinal bestseller, Clarke has written what will be truly one of the great books of the '80s. Cosmic in sweep, eloquent in its depiction of Man's place in the Universe, and filled with the romance of space, this novel is a monumental achievement. This is fiction in the grand tradition. Beside it, even 2001: A Space Odyssey is mere prologue!"
2061: Odyssey Three, Arthur C. Clarke revisits the most famous future ever imagined, as two expeditions into space are inextricably tangled by human necessity and the immutable laws of physics. And Heywood Floyd, survivor of two previous encounters with the mysterious monoliths, must once again confront Dave Bowman—or whatever Bowman has become—a newly independent HAL, and the power of an alien race that has decided Mankind is to play a part in the evolution of the galaxy whether it wishes to or not.
3001: The Final Odyssey returns to the future to reveal the answers to the questions that have intrigued us all. What do the monoliths mean? What really happened to Dave Bowman? And what will be the relationship between men and machines, Earth and outer space?Frank Poole was killed by the runaway space pod, then set adrift by Dave Bowman just before Bowman made his hazardous reentry into the Discovery to disconnect the psychotic computer, Hal. Now, a thousand years later, Bowman's frozen body has been restored to life by a civilization beyond the wildest fantasies of the past. He will discover the significance of the monoliths, the fate of his old crewmate, and his own amazing destiny. This description may be from another edition of this product. -
