As a kid I loved both Islands in the Sky and Dolphin Island, and re-read them many times. I thought I hadn't read a lot of Clarke's fiction, or certainly not a large proportion of it, but looking at his bibliography now I realise I've read a good few earlier works and remember most of them fondly.

He saw wonder and beauty in the natural world and wrote his damnedest to share something of that awe with the rest of us. His work formed the steady shoulders many who followed him planted their feet on to see further.

Damn.
