Encounter in the Dawn

di Arthur C. Clarke (Autore)

Scott Miller, 2024

Encounter in the Dawn follows a team of weary Galactic Survey scientists who land on a world that feels hauntingly familiar—lush continents, rich forests, and a young humanity standing at the beginning of its long climb toward civilization. Their arrival sparks a quiet but profound meeting between two branches of the same species separated by ten thousand generations, revealing the wonder, risk, and responsibility embedded in first contact. As the explorers document the planet’s life and slowly befriend a young hunter named Yaan, distant news from home grows steadily worse. Their civilization is dying, their time is running out, and their new connection to this primitive world forces them to confront what cannot be saved—and what might still be given. Clarke unfolds a moving, large-scale story with intimate emotional impact, exploring legacy, destiny, and the fragile handoff between cultures across the gulf of time. Arthur C. Clarke was one of the defining voices of 20th-century speculative fiction, known for combining scientific insight with humanistic storytelling. From Childhood’s End and Rendezvous with Rama to 2001: A Space Odyssey, Clarke reshaped modern science fiction with ideas that echoed far beyond the genre. His work continues to inspire scientists, writers, and dreamers around the world.
