Foundation's Fear (The Second Foundation Trilogy)
This is the first installment of The Second Foundation Trilogy, based on Isaac Asimov's famousFoundationseries. Acclaimed hard science fiction writers Gregory Benford, David Brin, and Greg Bear will each produce a work for the trilogy. Benford kicks off exploring the beginnings of the Foundation itself and its creator, Hari Seldon. Seldon is working on a project to ease the inevitable collapse of the universe-spanning Empire and the Dark Ages that will ensue. But the current emperor has other plans, like appointing Seldon first minister and thus thrusting him into a world of political intrigues and assassination attempts that ultimately will bring him up against future history's greatest threat.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
