Foundation's Edge (Foundation Series)

FROM THE PUBLISHER

At last, the costly and bitter war between the two Foundations had come to an end. The scientists of the First Foundation had proved victorious; and now they retum to Hari Seldon's long-established plan to build a new Empire that the Second Foundation is not destroyed after all-and that its still-defiant survivors are preparing their revenge. Now the two exiled citizens of the Foundation-a renegade Councilman and the doddering historian-set out in search of the mythical planet Earth. . .and proof that the Second Foundation still exists. Meanwhile someone-or something-outside of both Foundations sees to be orchestrating events to suit its own ominous purpose. Soon representatives of both the First and Second Foundations will find themselves racing toward a mysterious world called Gaia and a final shocking destiny at the very end of the universe!

FROM THE CRITICS

AudioFile - Robert Berlinger

The final volume of Isaac Asimov's epic Foundation series is brought vividly to life by David Dukes's masterful reading. Asimov's hero, Hari Seldon, struggles with his greatest work on psychohistory in the fading light of a doomed empire. Asimov fills his futuristic tale with a rich blend of captivating mystery, espionage and intrigue. While the world Asimov portrays is far removed from our own, David Dukes's resonant voice fires our imagination and brings the story to life thanks to his remarkable range. His voice has an almost hypnotic clarity which makes even the oddest sounding names and places glisten with familiarity. The result is an enthralling story that holds one entranced from start to finish. R.W.B. cAudioFile, Portland, Maine
