Two Classic Novels by Olaf Stapledon, Last and First Men and Star Maker Can Now Be Dowloaded Free of Charge

Olaf Stapledon!

What else can I say of him than he is one of the greatest of all SF
writers.
I read the Star Maker and I had to have brain surgery after that :)
He is the source of inspiration of Huxley, Clark, Asimov (Foundation
series) and all the rest of the pack. And all those ideas are
synthetized in his Star Maker.

Only one comment about him. Some people said the master of Stapledon
was the great and forgotten "Carl Sagan" of the 19th century: French
astronomer Camille Flammarion, whose novels "Omega: the end of the
world" and "Lumen" are really amazing and superb SF

Great link and thanks!

Stapledon's other novels (Odd John, Sirius) and short stories can

of literature besides some of the best science fiction of the 19th
and 20th Centuries.
