Description

The fifth novel in Isaac Asimov’s classic science-fiction masterpiece, the Foundation seriesTHE EPIC SAGA THAT INSPIRED THE APPLE TV+ SERIES FOUNDATIONGolan Trevize, former Councilman of the First Foundation, has chosen the future, and it is Gaia. A superorganism, Gaia is a holistic planet with a common consciousness so intensely united that every dewdrop, every pebble, every being, can speak for all—and feel for all. It is a realm in which privacy is not only undesirable, it is incomprehensible.But is it the right choice for the destiny of mankind? While Trevize feels it is, that is not enough. He must know.Trevize believes the answer lies at the site of humanity’s roots: fabled Earth . . . if it still exists. For no one is sure where the planet of Gaia’s first settlers is to be found in the immense wilderness of the Galaxy. Nor can anyone explain why no record of Earth has been preserved, no mention of it made anywhere in Gaia’s vast world-memory. It is an enigma Trevize is determined to resolve, and a quest he is determined to undertake, at any cost. Read more

    • Satisfying End
Format: Kindle
When I started reading this (for the 2nd time) I did not expect to be so satisfied by its conclusion. I don’t know if it’s my age speaking, but I found this series to be a very satisfying read.

    • Great Conclusion
Format: Kindle
Asimov managed to write a book that is like a pout-pourry of almost all spaceship-mission plots one could imagine, as Trevize, Pelorat, Bliss (and later on, Fallom) travel throughout the space seeking out "new life and new civilizations": a seductive lady in power, furious wild animals, a genetically-engineered eccentric sort of John Fowles' 'The Collector', fast-growing biohazard microorganisms, idyllic but dangerous natives... and then a great great conclusion that ties up everything together and definitively unites the Foundation Series with the Robot Series. It was really rewarding to hear of Elijah Baley and Daneel Olivaw in this book, after having enjoyed 'The Naked Sun' so much in my youth, and that more than offset the fact that the Seldon Plan is sort of left behind without a major conclusion. In any event, it is a very entertaining book, with Trevize now resembling a kind of Han Solo here, or should I say Jim Hopper from 'Stranger Things' (maybe because Fallom all of sudden started sounding like Eleven to me!). While very different from the other Foundation books, genre-wise, and with a much more linear, less-complex plot than 'Foundation's Edge', this is still one of my favorite Foundation books so far (I'm still to read the two prequel books), which speaks of Asimov's progression as a writer. However, I have one major regret: Novi does not appear in this book, which means I was right about her 'curse' at the end of 'Foundation's Edge' (too sad)! ... show more

    • An Intriguing and Fast Paced Conclusion to a Fantastic Series
Format: Mass Market Paperback
Foundation and Earth picks up right where Foundation's Edge left of as Trevize, Perolat and Bliss continue their search for Earth. The entire story-line includes the famous wit found in all Asimov's novels but seems to pack in even more intrigue than normal as it slowly becomes clear that something even greater than the Seldon plan may be at play. The story is very fast paced making it difficult to put this book down and it stretches the imagination more than any of the previous books. Asimov uses this final book to tie in both the Robot series and the Foundation series as well as clear up many other questions left open in his prior novels. The result is a very satisfying conclusion the the Foundation series. *** For those new to the series, here are the specific seven books tied directly into the Foundation story line and their original date of publication. I read these in the order they were published and was very happy to have chosen that order. Asimov also tied in some of this other book series into this one (specifically his Robot series) thus making the entire story line a much larger volume of books. Prelude to Foundation (1988) Forward the Foundation (1993) Foundation (1951) Foundation and Empire (1952) Second Foundation (1953) Foundation's Edge (1982) Foundation and Earth (1986) ... show more

    • Great series
Format: Kindle
Love to read the Asimov books. Favorite genre solely due to this writer. The ending of this book is my least favorite of the series as it was not explored further. It would be interesting to either have an alternate ending for a bit more closure or to find a continuation from this point in another series by another writer. Either way the story is still alive in my mind and all of the characters I’ve loved and loathed will be a part of me forever. The genius of hari seldon will be one for the generations ... show more

    • Classic Asimov Science Fiction
Format: Kindle
It's hard for me to review an Asimov work without the overuse of superlatives. Isaac Asimov's Foundation and Earth is part of the Foundation series, which are among the first science fiction books I read and I rank them all as great works of sci-fi. Asimov brings to an astounding close the saga of the First and Second Foundations, with a great twist while leaving open the door to future expansion and exploration. He paints for the reader an excellent picture of how vast the universe is and how human civilization might appear after 12,000 years of space travel and colonization. Despite the incredible reach attained by man during that time, there are still mysteries and unexplored corners of the "civilized" galaxy, let alone the myriad galaxies beyond ours. Once you start this series, you will not want to put it down until you reach the conclusion, then you will want to go out and get Asimov's other works. ... show more
