I’m currently reading the Wool omnibus by Hugh Howey. It’s pretty decent I’ve been making very rapid progress as it’s been too hot to sleep here recently now the summer has arrived.

I haven’t seen the Apple show, but maybe I’ll watch it in the future when I’ve finished all the books (I had Shift and Dust as well).

    4. Mirror Image (short story) [ROBOTS]

    5. The Robots of Dawn [ROBOTS]

    6. Robots and Empire [ROBOTS]

    7. The Stars, Like Dust-- [EMPIRE]

    8. The Currents of Space [EMPIRE]

    9. Pebble in the Sky [EMPIRE]

      The Foundation series is absolutely amazing, and I am jealous of you if this is your first reading. One of my formative series growing up. You’re inspiring me to do the whole Asimov read through like your doing, because I don’t believe I ever read the Empire books and never read Robot beyond I, Robot.

      I’m surprised The Caves of Steel is so early as it seemed really futuristic compared to most of The Complete Robot, but I read it a long time ago so maybe I’m not remembering correctly.
