Imperial Earth is the second of three novels Arthur C. Clarke published during the 1970s - and of those three, it is the least well-known. The main focus of this episode is to assess this tale of 2276, which takes in the quincentennial of the United States, a technological utopia, and Clarke's coy take on sexuality in science fiction.
This episode also includes a bonus - a brief look at the first five novels in Roger Zelazny's popular fantasy series, The Chonicles of Amber. Do these tales of infinite alternate universes stand up to their towering reputation?
