It's amazing how much of an effect Asimov's robot stories had on an entire segment of science fiction literature. They changed the way robots were envisioned and gave a framework for their real-world programming. His stories are timeless and always an intriguing read. I highly recommend them.

This was the first "real" science fiction book I ever read. I am re-reading it now just for the nostalgic pleasure. It's as spellbinding as I remember it in high school. He created a world that draws you in so subtly you don't even realize it. The dates are a little jarring now, as so many of them are now in the past.

Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson were extremely faithful to the tone and feel of Frank Herbert's Dune. This was an excellent book, filling in a gaping space in the original series.

This book was very interesting. The science was better than the average sci-fi book, and the romance wasn't over the top. Nice balance.
