The story of Island in the Sky centers around a young man, who, after brilliantly winning a space-related competition, requests a vacation on a space station as his prize. It is written with Arthur C. Clark's obvious knowledge of science, but moves at a page turning rate throughout the entire narrative. The short novel gives a realistic possibility of work and play in future space, heightened with constant excitement and action.

About the Author:
Arthur C. Clarke was considered to be the greatest science fiction writer of all time. He was an international treasure in many other ways: an article he wrote in 1945 led to the invention of satellite technology. Books by Mr. Clarke - both fiction and nonfiction - have more than one hundred million copies in print worldwide. He died in 2008 at the age of 90.

CHARLES CARROLL is an actor, writer, and musician from New England.  He began teaching film at an arts-focused school where he became inspired to concentrate on acting and film production.  Upon hearing the narrations of Frank Muller, Charles began his own wild journey into voiceover and audiobook work.  Charles is an honors graduate of the University of Rhode Island with a degree in literature and classics.
