5By DwardengThis is one lesson of many that we learn in the final book of the original Foundation trilogy. Engaging action builds to a satisfying conclusion. Another huge lesson from this trilogy- ignorance will destroy a civilization.Other Foundation Books
2By 808-bThese books are great but what happened to the other Foundation books? I was reading "Foundation and Earth" on my iPad, updated to iOS 5.0 and then couldn't find the book in the iBooks store!Beautiful
5By pmjs58A masterfully written story that circles back on itself in surprising and clever ways. It was engaging and fun to read.
