| The Stars, Like Dust |
 ISBN: 0449023737 LibraryThing | This is a short book, and quite different from the other Asimovs I've read recently. Specifically it doesn't have any robots, and isn't a murder mystery. Its also set about 1,000 years into the future from the previous Robot Mysteries. Its a good book, with a style similar to the original Robot Mysteries (distinct from the newer ones written 40 years later). Its short and an easy read. I liked it.
Update: I originally thought the space between the Robot Mysteries and this book was much bigger than apparently it is meant to be. According to Wikipedia's page on the empire series: "Some sources further this argument by asserting that The Stars, Like Dust takes place about one thousand years following the events of Robots and Empire." |
