I'm reading Foundation by Isaac Asimov and I'd like some other opinions on it, I'm not entirely sure what I think of it and I'm already halfway through the book... I want to read I, Robot too, though. Has anyone read that, too?

Here's a better question: Has anyone read anything by Isaac Asimov? *I'm so incoherent!* >.<

I like Isaac Asimov's works! I've read some of his short stories, and liked them! I really like <i>Nemesis</i>. I read the Foundation Trilogy, but didn't really get into that. I've read just about all of his books they have at my library. lol

I recently found Foundation in a pile of my mom's old sci-fi books, and I had planned on starting it soon.

I tend to enjoy Asimov's short stories the most, my favorite being The Bicentennial Man.

I've read I, Robot, and I loved it. (The movie was also incredibly awesome, but this isn't the right place. :P ) I also read Caves of Steel, a book that had similarities to the movie I, Robot. I love Asimov and can't wait to read more of his works. :)

I read the Foundation series before I read Lord of the Rings.
Its good, though the writing style is vastly different from Tolkien.

I read The Stars like Dust. I remember really enjoying it, but that was several years ago and my tastes have somewhat changed since then.

Is the book I, Robot the same storyline as the movie? Because I saw the movie and liked it a lot, but I haven't read the book.
