I first read this novel when I was ten years old, and its protagonist became my personal hero and model for years afterward. I recently reread it as an adult, decades later, and the book holds up very well. Given that it was written around 1950 some of the technological extrapolation ends up looking quite dated, but none of that is relevant to the plot, and if you look past it the story itself is extremely compelling. Even more important, Clarke's legendary ability to craft scenes with descriptions verging on poetry is on full display here. I actually ended up rereading the book because I was trying to tell someone about the prologue, which in about three pages succeeds in establishing both the setting and the mood for the entire novel.Clarke later rewrote this story as "The City and the Stars"; he was unhappy with the original, one of his first published works. I actually think this book is superior to that one, but that might be nostalgia talking. :)If you enjoy Clarke's vision of vast gulfs of space and time in this novel, you should also read "Last and First Men" and "Star Maker" by Olaf Stapledon. Clarke acknowledged Stapledon as a major influence on his writing, and this novel is very clearly in part an homage to "Last and First Men".

There are two books in one here. The first is Arthur C Clarke's first sci fi novel, Against the Fall of Night. The second is a sequel written with Clarke's permission by another author titled, Beyond the Fall of Night. As the title of this review indicates, I liked the first, but really didn't care for the second.Set in the very far future on Earth, the first book is a tale of two, very different human civilizations which have been separated for many, many years. One is super technological with very long living people. The other is more the back to nature type with people with much shorter life spans.A young man from the super tech group rediscovers the other group and goes on an adventure with a friend he meets among the other group. He learns the real truth about Earth's history and the split of humanity. Quite a surprise.It's a good story, though some aspects seem a bit of a stretch. It was written a long time ago.The sequel is just weird. I was barely able to force myself to finish it.Interestingly, Clarke rewrote the first book and published it as The City and the Stars. I reviewed it separately. I liked both versions, but I liked the first a bit more than the second. See what you think.

When Arthur C. Clarke published this SciFi tale (serially in 1948, as a book in 1953), he set it a billion years in the future. At that distance, science fiction gains a lot of freedom and can be expected to age slowly, since few (!) readers will live to see whether the author's ideas touch on future reality. Against the Fall of Night (Arthur C. Clarke Collection: Vanamonde) is a classic that, surprisingly, continues to be popular after its makeover, "The City and the Stars", was published in 1956. Each version of the story has its virtues."Against the Fall of Night" is the harder SciFi version. The City, Diaspar, has been a refuge for humanity for eons, and has achieved a worthwhile, stable society. However, the City's stability and the longevity of its citizens have come at the expense of human drive and innovation. Science and engineering long ago established a technological cocoon, and have disappeared from the City's modern pursuits. The book has two main elements. First, description of the nature of technology and society in Clarke's vision of the distant future. Second, the plot centers on explorations of its 20-year-old protagonist, Alvin, and the consequent disruptions that will apparently lead to renewed vigor and growth of humanity."Against..." helped to develop and popularize concepts such as vast computers, human space travel, machines that can reconstitute anything on demand (including people), faster-than-light travel (essential if humans are to gad about the universe), and both civilizations and intelligent beings enormously advanced beyond humankind. Modern readers with a certain amount of scientific knowledge and skepticism might find some "visions" here that are very likely to belong forever in the realm of magic and dreams. Such imagined capabilities can, however, provide a rich background for adventure stories. Some of the ideas eventually find echoes in advances of science and technology.This book has pleased many YA and adult readers over its 60+ years in print and is still well worth reading. The Kindle version is quite well done, with few textual errors.For readers who want to decide whether to read this book or its expanded version (or both?), I've writtten a review of "The City and the Stars" that might help you choose, see http://www.amazon.com/review/R27P4KPCX7CSBT/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm . My quick advice: if you like your SciFi short and sweet, "Against..." is your book; if you prefer SciFi with fuller character development together with a dash of psychology, sociology, and philosophy, "The City..." will be more likely to please. The story line is nearly identical in each, so probably only ardent fans of SciFi and/or Arthur C. Clarke will want to read both.Review value added (!):My favorite of Clarke's SciFi books is "Rendezvous with Rama".Isaac Asimov's Foundation Trilogy and its extensions are SciFi classics that explore some of the same ideas in the context of very different stories and with different "spin". Unless you suffer from extreme aversion to SciFi, don't miss those 5-star novels.

Arthur C Clarke's Against the Fall of Night is a 1950's era sci-fi tale that takes place hundreds of millions of years into the future at which point humanity has supposedly been relegated to Earth by long forgotten 'invaders' annoyed at Earth's expansion. The story is told by a young boy living in the only city and is also the only child as immortality has been established. The child is curious and goes on a journey and adventure as he asks questions no one wants to ask and goes places no one believes possible. His journey takes him to another distant city without immortality, but possessing mind control. This leads to more adventures and unraveling the mysteries of the ancient story of how the current situation came to exist - big hint: it's not what he was told.Clarke's timescale is a bit hard to take. Asserting that hundreds of millions of years have elapsed, it's still hard to imagine that even long lived individuals could remain frightened of long ago tales no one remembers. In addition, beyond the concept of no progress ever having been made in such a long time, boredom would certainly have killed everyone as nothing ever changes. Clarke seems to be commenting on cultural, societal, and scientific stagnation as a death knell with immortality, while there just doesn't seem any explanation for why the mind controllers remain in a pseudo-pastoral island. The only motivation appears to be avoiding change.
