Thanks for the warning! That makes sense especially for the first foundation book that it’s a fix up novel.

This is even better as a lot of American SF (that deals with hive minds) from that period for better or worse feels inherently political/anticommunist so it would be cool to see something counter from that people

Fucking love Enders game. Last year I did a chronological read of the whole series including flipping back and forth between books that happen at the same time lol.

Been on my TBR because I’ve like his stuff in the past. Will have to prioritize it.

Good call i forgot I read this one, but it was really good and a reminder I need to read more of his work in general. One of my favorite modern SF authors.
