I just finished reading Foundation's Edge from the one and only Isaac Asimov. All is left now is Foundation and Earth and I am done with the whole Robot/Empire/Foundation series. I am reading them more or less chronologically, though I did mix a few up. I think this is the way that any series ought to be read, or viewed. It would be interesting though to read some of them again in the order of publishing, to see Asimov's style and ideas develop. It was really hard to find all of them in English, the Empire trilogy is not available anywhere, not even on Amazon.com. Fortunately the library down the street from my downtown apartment had them. I found the whole Asimov universe quite fascinating. His characters are pretty cool too, but my favourite part is the logical reasoning that is consistent throughout the novels. You can tell that he was a mainly man of science and then a science fiction writer. We don't read enough SciFi nowadays!
