Greg Bear Foundation and Chaos (Second Foundation Trilogy) Harper Voyager 0061052426 / 9780061052422 Hardcover Fine 0061052426 Editorial Reviews n nAmazon.com Review nThis is book number two in the new Second Foundation Trilogy being written by hard science fiction authors Gregory Benford, Greg Bear, and David Brin, otherwise known as the "Killer B's." In this book, Bear continues where Benford's Foundation's Fear left off, as the trial of legendary psychohistorian Hari Seldon is about to begin. Bear writes with a style uncannily similar to Foundation creator Isaac Asimov's, and he even manages to incorporate some of Asimov's own writing in the novel. Aside from the trial, Bear also focuses on the nearly immortal robots that serve the Foundation, including R. Daneel Olivaw, who is set to guide one of the Foundation's first great undertakings. But Olivaw runs into trouble from an unexpected quarter, his best operative, Lodovik Trema, whose positronic brain has been irrevocably altered in a strange accident that has given him freedom from the supposedly immutable laws of robotics. --Craig Engler n nReview n"Brings out the complexities of a galactic empire that Asimov n nnever filled out." n n-- -- Denver Post n n"Brings out the complexities of a galactic empire that Asimov never filled out." -- Denver Post n n"Exciting and well written." -- Publishers Weekly --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.
