The story of Island in the Sky centers around a young man, who, after brilliantly winning a space-related competition, requests a vacation on a space station as his prize. It is written with Arthur C. Clark's obvious knowledge of science, but moves at a page turning rate throughout the entire narrative. The short novel gives a realistic possibility of work and play in future space, heightened with constant excitement and action.

The Light of Other Days tells the tale of what happens when a brilliant, driven industrialist harnesses the cutting edge of quantum physics to enable people everywhere, at trivial cost, to see one another at all times: around every corner, through every wall, into everyone's most private, hidden, and even intimate moments. It amounts to the sudden and complete abolition of human privacy - forever.

No one may seize or harm the person or property of another, or invade his privacy, or force him to do his bidding. Americans are fiercely proud of their re-won liberties and the blood it cost them; nothing could make them forswear those truths they hold self-evident. Nothing except the promise of immortality…

There he was in his sailboat in the middle of the Atlantic, all alone and loving it. Well, there was a US Navy carrier group on his southern horizon, but he was a Navy guy himself, so he didn't mind. Then came the UFOs, hurtling in from the Outer Black to overfly the carriers at Mach 17. Their impossible aerobatics were bad enough—but then they started shooting at each other, and at the Navy, with nukes. Little ones at first, but winding up with a 500 megatonner at 90 miles that fried every piece of electronics within line-of-sight.

Historia
Roger Torraway watched in horror as the monster lurched, toppled over and died. Project Man Plus had gone suddenly and drastically wrong. The race to colonize Mars was too important, too costly, and America was already too committed, for plans to be scrapped. They would have to make a new Martian. And Roger Torraway was it, candidate for the endless surgery, operation after painful operation, that would enable him to survive on that faraway planet.

Historia
At his death in 1988, Robert A. Heinlein left a legacy that almost single-handedly defined modern science fiction. But one of Heinlein's masterpieces was never finished. In 1955, he began work on Variable Star, a powerful and passionate tale of two young lovers driven apart by pride, power, and the vastness of interstellar time and space. Now, the Heinlein estate has authorized award-winning author Spider Robinson to expand his outline into a full-length novel. And the result is vintage Heinlein.

Historia
From the Audie-nominated narrator of The Martian. In eleven years' time, a million members of an alien race will arrive at Earth. Years before they enter orbit, their approach will be announced by the flare of a thousand flames in the sky, their ships' huge engines burning hard to slow them from the vast speeds needed to cross interstellar space. These foreboding lights will shine in our night sky like new stars, getting ever brighter until they outshine even the sun, casting ominous shadows and banishing the night until they suddenly blink out.

Historia
On June 30, 1908, an object fell from the sky, releasing more energy than a thousand Hiroshima bombs. A Siberian forest was flattened, but the strike left no significant crater. The anomaly came to be known as the Tunguska Event, and scientists have never agreed whether it was the largest meteor strike in recorded history - or something else. Alien artifacts have been uncovered since the 1908 event, and a new star drive is discovered.

Historia
Welcome to Ringworld, an intermediate step between Dyson Spheres and planets. The gravitational force created by a rotation on its axis of 770 miles per second means no need for a roof. Walls 1,000 miles high at each rim will let in the sun and prevent much air from escaping. Larry Niven's novel, Ringworld, is the winner of the 1970 Hugo Award for Best Novel, the 1970 Nebula Award for Best Novel, and the 1972 Ditmars, an Australian award for Best International Science Fiction.

Aliens are spying on Earth from one of the four worlds that make up the Warden Diamond. But it is impossible to send agents to any of the four worlds because of unique microscopic symbionts that make it impossible for visitors to leave the Diamond. Seeking a unique solution, each of the four worlds making up the Diamond is sent a person whose mind has been stripped of everything and who is now controlled by an agent of the Confederacy. Lilith is the first planet to be visited.

The story of Island in the Sky centers around a young man, who, after brilliantly winning a space-related competition, requests a vacation on a space station as his prize. It is written with Arthur C. Clark's obvious knowledge of science, but moves at a page turning rate throughout the entire narrative. The short novel gives a realistic possibility of work and play in future space, heightened with constant excitement and action.

Narrater is fine
Don't be put off by other reviewers comments about the narrater. His style is fine and not at all distracting. Clarke over explains some things but that's to be expected given that sonar was an exotic technology at the time.

A Classic Favorite
I first read “The Deep Range” as a boy when it was originally published and have read it again since then. It’s always been one of my favorites from Arthur C. Clark. Hearing it as an audible work was another chance to revisit it. Like many classic works, this is one that I would recommend reading in print before listening to the audio.

It’s good to return to Clarke
I miss his wondrous stories. But luckily I can return to them, as I did this one. Now to rediscover more of his undersea adventures.

Love Arthur C Clarke's stories about the ocean.
A bit dated with the hunting of whales. I guess Clarke didn't quite predict this future correctly. It is still an enjoyable story reminiscent of "Dolphin Island" (which I wish Audible would do)....a future story set in an oceanic environment.

Weird, Unbelievable Story
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Interesting take on the future of the ocean, a bit unrealistic--. but given the publish date...
What could Arthur C. Clarke have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
More details.
Which character – as performed by Steven Menasche – was your favorite?
All are fine
Do you think The Deep Range needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
No
Any additional comments?
I am not in love with the book, but I do like the narration. Kind of soothing. I think at times a bit dramatic, but it works for me.

Classic Clarke, but the reader pauses too much
What did you like best about The Deep Range? What did you like least?
This book, published in 1957, is Clarke's speculation on the use of the oceans to maintain the world's food supply. (The real life "Green Revolution" in land-based agriculture didn't take off until the 1960s, so at the time turning to the seas looked promising.) Plankton farming vies with whale herding for providing human nutriment. The analogy of plankton = homestead farming, vs. whales = cattle ranching in the Old West, is not lost on Clarke, who gives us Whaleboys instead of Cowboys. We also get the tantalizing possibility of undiscovered sea monsters, and the age-old debate over whether it's right to slaughter animals to feed humanity.
The characters have more depth than in much of Clarke's later work, and Clarke can be forgiven for casting women entirely in the housewife/secretary role they were stuck with at the time the book was written.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Steven Menasche?
Who would I cast as narrator? ANYONE ELSE. Mr. Menasche has an annoying tendency to pause dramatically before the end of every sentence. EVERY sentence. Even sentences that aren't supposed to be dramatic. It's like listening to William Shatner read the U.S. Constitution.
Was The Deep Range worth the listening time?
Yes

So much fun!
At first I was skeptical of a submarine adventure, but it's definitely a fun and refreshing change of pace from too much deep space!

nice Clarke at sea this time
I read this long ago and listened to it again several years ago on tape and I was surprised to find it completely different than i remember. 3 very distinct sections of which the middle may be my favorite. a lot of interesting deep sea stuff, and though I have a little trouble with the overall premise of whales as food in the future in light of conservation and the sentient question concerning whales and dolphins, Clarke at the time was probably extrapolating a potentially future necessity and dealing with it logically and at the end of the novel I think he's coming around to bigger questions. well done, well written. not a huge fan of the narrator who does a passable job but not very inspired. I am enjoying revisiting all the old Clarke.

Bad Narration
The reader mispronounces words like ‘compass’ ‘library’ (he says libary—ugh), ‘starboard’ ‘Brisbane’ and he says yooman and yooj from human and huge. It’s painful.
