A book my Uncle Jack’s ex-wife just released. It’s a rather depressing read at the moment (health crisis, then long successful recovery–I hope the latter part is more uplifting!) She’ll alway be my Aunt Bonnie. . . I really feel for her, I was told/knew nothing of this before.
The entire Robot series is a thoroughly enjoyable read. Well written, not littered with overwrought scientific jargon and, very technologically and socially prescient in many ways.
To be honest, I don’t remember. It’s been a while since I’d read the entire Foundation series. I do remember that they are interlinked in a manner of speaking; but as to the exact details, they elude me. My favorite chapters in the Foundation series were those involving the “Mule”. A really well constructed storyline that never once bored me.
I caught maybe a half dozen episodes during a “free week” on Comcast because I don’t subscribe to Apple TV-. The word “loosely” described what I saw versus what I remember from the first Foundation novel. That having been said, I did enjoy it nevertheless.
This one’s gotten a lot of press reviews since its release. There are a few things as far as plot development that could have been better developed but it’s an interesting and thought provoking read nonetheless. My wife gives it a thumbs up as well.
