À propos de cet audio

 The second of two prequel novels in Isaac Asimov’s classic science-fiction masterpiece, the Foundation series

THE EPIC SAGA THAT INSPIRED THE APPLE TV+ SERIES FOUNDATION

As Hari Seldon struggles to perfect his revolutionary theory of psychohistory and ensure a place for humanity among the stars, the great Galactic Empire totters on the brink of apocalyptic collapse. Caught in the maelstrom are Seldon and all he holds dear, pawns in the struggle for dominance. Whoever can control Seldon will control psychohistory—and with it the future of the Galaxy.

Among those seeking to turn psychohistory into the greatest weapon known to man are a populist political demagogue, the weak-willed Emperor Cleon I, and a ruthless militaristic general. In his last act of service to humankind, Hari Seldon must somehow save his life’s work from their grasp as he searches for its true heirs—a search that begins with his own granddaughter and the dream of a new Foundation.

Yeah so obviously the story is amazing, but the voice actor has this really deep robotic voice. However, if you really want to hear the book it’s still worth it

Love the story, voice actor no great

the story was good overall the downside is the narrator very monotone and really pulls you out of the story hard to listen to but if you can get past that it is not bad listen.

bad performance

As a fan of Mr. Azimov, I was not disappointed in the story. I listened to Prelude to Foundation and enjoyed the reader. However, I barely tolerated the reader of this book. At times he sounded very robotic. Eto Demerzel would have done a better job.

Good story, poor reader.

Overall the story was well written and interesting. The narration on the other hand very ponderous and unexciting. Luckily I discovered early on that if I turned the speed up to 1.4x it improved the narration immensely and the characters were easier to distinguish. Hope this helps anyone who listens to this book.

Lugubrious narration improved

Larry McKeever reads clearly enough but does not have enough capability to give emotions to the characters. There is very little to differentiate between characters. There are so many odd pauses that it breaks up the flow of the performance.

However, Isaac Asimov's story is A+ as usual for the Foundation series. I hope the Foundation can be expanded on with new capable writers. Not like the disaster with Herbert's Dune series expanded on by his son.

Narrator leaves much to be desired
