Review: Prelude to Foundation

Prelude to Foundation by Isaac Asimov


My first read of Asimov's extended Foundation series. I found this one an easygoing romp. I enjoyed the writing, especially the action scenes. I found it kind of funny how Seldon seemed to have some action, and then announces he has figured out a bit more about his theory, then more action than another announcement. Those announcements, though, didn't seem to be breakthroughs based on the action, but a bit separate, kind of like a Sherlock Holmes story with a successful conclusion without explained deduction. Oh well, it was a fun read and I'm going to try the next one soon.
