All of those books are well worth reading (though I admit that I have a particular fondness for The End of Eternity), but the original trilogy offers arguably the best read. And while I write “trilogy”, but Asimov actually added more books to the series, and retroactively connected them to his series of Robot books, as well as The End of Eternity. Together, the books in the Foundation trilogy are probably the best known science-fiction novels, rivalled only, perhaps, by such landmark works as Frank Herbert’s Dune, or the older novels written by Jules Verne and H.G.
In this first instalment, I focus on Isaac Asimov’s Foundation trilogy of books. I though it would be fun to do a short series of articles about different things that have taken inspiration from the ancient world (other than Star Trek!).
