About this listen
In 3001: The Final Odyssey, Arthur C. Clarke brings the greatest and most successful science fiction series of all time to its magnificent, stunningly unforeseen conclusion. As we hurtle toward the new millennium in real time, Clarke brilliantly - daringly - leaps 1,000 years into the future to reveal a truth we are only now capable of comprehending. An epic masterpiece at once dazzlingly imaginative and grounded in scientific actuality, 3001 is a story that only Arthur C. Clarke could tell.

A fitting finale.
A great tying up of the story in many ways. I find the braincap idea fascinating. Arthur C Clarke was an awesome painter of stories with an entire universe as his canvas.

a fitting end
combines all of the "clarkisms" in one novel leaving you wanting more while still feeling it has drawn a line under the main story.

An excellent epilogue to the Odyssey series
From one of the great masters of hard Science Fiction, this is the last book of his Odyssey series. Starting with Odyssey 2001, a project created together with Stanley Kubrick as a basis of the same titled film, Clarke created a multiverse of mankind's possible future in a Cosmos that we are not alone.
A notable scientist himself, Clarke does not fail to maintain the feeling of plausibility when inserting imagined technical advances to his storyline; at the same time he manages to show the interactions of humans who still retain many of the character traits we have today while clearly affected by the changes in human mentality he imagines to have occurred in the future.
Thoroughly enjoyable even as a standalone book but even more so as a conclusion to the entire series.

Our modern day Jules Verne !
SO much of what Arthur Clarke wrote in his earlier books has come true we wonder how much of this one will..... He also acknowledges there is inevitably a 'spiritual' / 'philosophical' element in our world although he says he is not religious in any way.
I liked the way he tied up all the books and concepts very clever, obviously a gifted scientist and mathematician. It is an easy listen and well read

Man of science, master of science fiction
Loved it, I knew I would, as when I was still able to read a whole novel, I read this one four times (with intervals between) and now being able to just listen is great. I would have been very disappointed if it had been abridged!
