The Second Foundation Trilogy begins with Gregory Benford's Foundation's Fear, telling the origins of Hari Seldon, the Foundation's creator. Gregory Bear's Foundation and Chaos relates the epic tale of Seldon's downfall and the first stirrings of robotic rebellion. Now, in David Brin's Foundation's Triumph, Seldon is about to escape exile and risk everything for one final quest -- the outcome of which may secure humankind's future -- or witness its final downfall ….One Last Adventure!Isaac Asimov's Foundation Trilogy is one of the highwater marks of science fiction.The monumental story of a Galactic Empire in decline and a secret society of scientists who seek to shorten the coming Dark Age with tools of Psychohistory, Foundation pioneered many themes of modern science fiction. Now, with the approval of the Asimov estate, three of today's most acclaimed authors have completed the epic the Grand Master left unfinished.

5 stars

Wow. Just ... wow. (No exclamation points. One doesn't bounce up and down while digesting such a feast.)

Brin's talent and genius carried the day once again. We admit to our faith having been shaken upon reading some of the crankier reviews as we got started, but we needn't have worried. It's hard to know what to write without spoiling -- not just the plot but some of the philosophy reveals, uncertainties, and more.

Haters gonna hate, but diversity must prevail. <3

A fine and worthy closure, at least temporarily, to Asimov's Robots/Foundation worlds.

4 stars

This is an enjoyable conclusion to the 2nd Foundation Trilogy. This 6th novel brings the Foundation "History' to a logical pause while leaving numerous openings for future authors to carry the 'series' further. The Second Foundation Trilogy is an entertaining & worthwhile read albeit not up to the original series standards set by Issac Asimov.
