About this deal

I do not recommend Forward the Foundation to any but the most diehard of Asimov's fans (who may be more delighted with it than I was), and although I hesitate, I have to rate this one at only two out of five stars.

Primo perchè chiude il cerchio, tutto viene spiegato, tutti i personaggi vengono caratterizzati per una chiara comprensione della storia. libro escrito por Asimov, y publicado después de su muerte, e historia que sirve para unir con el inicio de Fundación.

The Foundation series has enthralled readers for more than 40 years, and this work is a dramatic climax. En este libro Asimov plantea preguntas sobre la democracia, la estabilidad política, la importancia del acceso al conocimiento y la cultura: cuestiones que para Asimov resultaban de suma importancia en su época y contexto y que creo que, con el auge de Internet y un mayor acceso a medios digitales de información, siguen siendo vigentes. The military junta has been replaced by a new democratic government, with young Agis XIV as a powerless Emperor that nonetheless tries to make some good with what he can. It almost feels more like a trio of connected novellas than one cohesive novel, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

The characters are cardboard throughout, and any human behavior he gives them seems contrived and thrown in as it occurs to the author that something is needed. Grazie alla sua opera, può essere di diritto annoverato tra i primi e più diretti ispiratori di Hari Seldon, il padre fondatore della psicostoria, la scienza del comportamento umano ridotto ad equazioni matematiche" ENCICLOPEDIA GALATTICASecondo prequel al ciclo delle fondazioni vero e proprio, il romanzo si svolge su Trantor a partire da 8 anni dopo il primo prequel Preludio alla Fondazione.Forward the Foundation is good old fashioned Sci-Fi and well worth the read, especially in the context of the Foundation Trilogy. Here in the great multidomed capital of the Galactic Empire, forty billion people have created a civilization of unimaginable technological and cultural complexity. Sadly, this hadn't a lot of Foundation stuff in it and it's actually the weakest in the series so far.

COMPLETE FOUNDATION TRILOGY Series EDGE FORWARD AND EARTH PRELUDE TO Isaac Asimov Collectors Deluxe Limited Edition FULL LEATHER ILLUSTRATED!Si bien fueron sus cuentos los que me llevaron a plantearme más preguntas y toda su obra está profundamente cargada de planteamientos filosóficos, creo que en la saga de Fundación el tono filosófico es patente y tuvieron un impacto signifcativo en mi vida. He died of a heart attack and kidney failure, so he might also been in poor health during the writing of this book, and couldn't exert as much effort on it as he would have liked. Overall, this was an extremely well done building up of the legend of Hari Seldon that both enriches and humanizes the character we come to love in Foundation. Between the two, they manage to find more people with power, and Hari decides to send them to hide in Trantor, so they can forge the Second Foundation.
