Forward the Foundation

Forward the Foundation is a treat for anyone who enjoyed Asimov's Foundation Trilogy (Foundation, Foundation and Empire, & Second Foundation). This prelude to the great trilogy follows the latter years of Hari Seldon's life as Seldon attempts to use the still undeveloped science of psychohistory to prop up the decaying empire just long enough for him to finish his life's work. The book oscillates between being a thriller and a biography, demonstrating Asimov's unique ability to fit any literary genera into his science fiction universe.
