I just started Isaac Asimov's Foundation series. This is my first foray into this particular genre of literature, and it came well recommended from my father among many, many others. In fact, it was the winner of a special Hugo Award for Best All Time Series in the realm of science- and fantasy-fiction, winning over such works as those of Tolkien, Burroughs, and E. E. Smith.
Asimov is widely considered a master of hard science fiction and, along with Robert A. Heinlein and Arthur C. Clarke, he was considered one of the "Big Three" science fiction writers during his lifetime. - Wikipedia
Has anyone here read this particular series? I'd be very interested to hear some Bluelighters' opinions on it. Thanks guys.
