While I consider Arthur C Clarke as a visionary author, his work is not among my favorites. I have a lot of old Astounding pulps from the 1940's and Clifford Simak is among my favorite writers. I recently read the novella (then called novelette) titled Census from the September '44 Astounding; it's a great story. If you're a fan of old school SF authors I'd also recommend Fredric Brown's work; he's quite literally the O'Henry of SF authors. :O)
