About this product

Product Information

The first of two prequel novels in Isaac Asimov's classic science-fiction masterpiece, the Foundation series THE EPIC SAGA THAT INSPIRED THE UPCOMING APPLE TV+ SERIES FOUNDATION It is the year 12,020 G.E. and Emperor Cleon I sits uneasily on the Imperial throne of Trantor. Here in the great multidomed capital of the Galactic Empire, forty billion people have created a civilization of unimaginable technological and cultural complexity. Yet Cleon knows there are those who would see him fall-those whom he would destroy if only he could read the future. Hari Seldon has come to Trantor to deliver his paper on psychohistory, his remarkable theory of prediction. Little does the young Outworld mathematician know that he has already sealed his fate and the fate of humanity. For Hari possesses the prophetic power that makes him the most wanted man in the Empire . . . the man who holds the key to the future-an apocalyptic power to be known forever after as the Foundation.

Ultimate find, I was looking for one of these for a long time, and when I found this one I had no hesitation in purchasing it, the seller was extremely helpful and communicated very well. The price with the postage was very reasonable and when I got it home the item looked better in person than it did in the picture

  • The Foundation

    The original Foundation trilogy is the best work of science fiction ever written, imho. The other four books in the series are also good, connecting all of Asimov's world-building. I read them several times when I was a teenager. Now that I'm a father, with a teenager of my own, I decided to purchase them for me son. In the process, I also get to reread them. That is a win-win. They are as good now as they were back then.

  • Isaac Asimov festival of great books.

    If you like "traditional" science fiction, this is a great package. Some duplicates but an incredible value still.
