"No book before or since ever had such an impact on my imagination." - Arthur C. Clarke

Last and First Men is an insightful, revolutionary account of future history across two billion years. Written by British science fiction writer Olaf Stapledon, this novel details the emergence of 18 distinct human species, underscored by the recurring rise and fall of civilizations and the emergence of sub-humans. Since it's publication, renowned writers such as C. S. Lewis and H. P. Lovecraft have cited the novel as their ultimate inspiration - its lasting effects on the science fiction genre are a testament to Stapledon's undying literary significance.
