“This is Asimov's best book.”

• Rated 5 stars

“I must begin this by saying that I am an enormous Asimov fan. With that in mind, you should understand that I'm a bit subjective.

The book is amazing. It's Asimov's glory condensed and the reason I love it so much is that it appeals to non-SF readers as well. It's an incredible three-part story, which takes you through a classical Asimov adventure, with credible characters and a realistic feeling story. The fact that charms Asimov's stories so well is the fact that although the story is set somewhere in the future it is a. far away enough timewise and b. centered on the people and not the futuristic gadgets. The fact that the focus is on characters is shown in that all the characters in it have complex interactions between themselves and make you enjoy the whole experience.

All in all, one of Asimov's finest, and definitely worth a read, regardless of what genre you enjoy. And the plot twist hits you like a silver bullet, unexpected and right at that sweet spot.

Enjoy :)”

“After rereading this book, it's interesting to see how it applies to today's events.

It tells a story of the effect of science and technology on the future of mankind, and how just a few people can stop a growing problem.”
