"Robots and Empire" - Classic Asimov
I'm an Asimov fan from the get-go. I don't just read his novels & stories, I re-read them, sometimes several times. "Robots and Empire" is one, though, that's gotten by me till now. It's the final installment in his series of robot novels and also features the final appearance of inimitable space detective Lije Baley. Just got it in the mail, so I haven't finished reading it yet, but I can tell you this. The writing is classic Asimov: no frills, witty, fast moving, psychologically taut, with a plot that captured me right off. I also appreciate Asimov's consistent worldview over decades of storytelling (e.g., the settlement of the galaxy by Settlers & Spacers, the role of robots, the technology available), and the fact that women feature prominently in many of these tales. Here, for instance, as in other robot novels, Gladia Delmarre/Solaria/Gremionis (who inherits R. Daneel Olivaw & R. Giskard Reventlov from roboticist Han Fastolfe) is at the center of the plot that will determine how the galaxy will be settled and the fate of planet Earth. Wonderful story. Enjoying it immensely. I think you will too.

Great Value for an Out of Print Book
The spine was worn a little more than I expected after reading the item description.

The books good, but...
The book really came in acceptable condition not in good condition which it is listed as. The content is great though.

Asimov At His Best
This book is a must if you are an Issac Asimov fan. This is the missing piece between the Robots of Dawn and the Foundation series.

This book explains it all.
This the book that ties together the "Robot series" and the "Foundation series". Daneel from "Caves of Steel" to "Foundation and Earth"
