The Space Odyssey series is a science fiction media franchise created by writer Arthur C. Clarke and filmmaker Stanley Kubrick, consisting of two films and four novels. The first novel was developed concurrently with Kubrick's film version and published after the release of the film. The second novel was made into a feature film directed by Peter Hyams and released in 1984. Two of Clarke's early short stories have ties to the series.
