Pretty much the same as Foundation''s Edge by the same author. This
book attempts to marry both the Foundation
series, and Asimov''s other renowned series, the Robots.
Again, it''s not that bad, but you get the feeling that Asimov is just trying to cash in. It just seems like a romp around the old words featured in the Robots series - there''s nothing new in this book. It defies the writing of a summary because it''s so diffuse. Nothing happens. I don''t care. It''s not a book that sticks in your mind.
In fact, I would go so
far as to suggest that you shouldn''t even bother reading Foundation''s Edge or Foundation and Earth. There are many other good books out there, and some of them are by Asimov, as well. If you really want to
read Foundation, read the prequels. They''re far better.
