An interesting time to be reading Forward…. Was that because of the TV series? Are you reading them in sequence?

I read all of the main sequence of Dune through to the Brian Herbert ending books. Quinns Ideas got me motivated enough to start reading those a few years ago. That got me to start Foundation next. I saw the various Asimov books referenced by the publishers and read most of the series. I still have Foundation’s Edge, and one other I’m not able to recall ATM, to fill in my entire collection from Robots through Foundation.

I loved robots and empire but foundation was waaay to much telling not showing. Are the latter books better?

Sounds interesting. I read Ross Brawn’s & Alan Parr’s “Total Competition”. Maybe touches the same topics from another angle.

I’m reading that currently too! So far I’m really liking it.

I tend to binge through books. I just finished Andy Weir’s Artemis and Project Hail Mary in about one night each.

Which means the things I’m in the middle of tend to be web serials since I can’t just rush through. I’ve got dozens of tabs of royalroad open in my phone’s browser. Everything by Ravensdagger is good, and I’ve been enjoying Return of the Runebound Professor and Let’s Not Obliterate, and awaiting the scheduled return from hiatus of Ends of Magic on Monday.

Project Hail Mary is an excellent read. I’m recommending it constantly.
