Historia
Trantor had extended its rule over half the Galaxy, but the other half defied its authority, defending their corrupt fiefdoms with violence and repression. On the planet Florina, the natives labored as slaves for their arrogant masters on nearby Sark. But now both worlds were hurtling toward a cataclysmic doom, and only one man knew the truth - a slave unaware of the secret knowledge locked inside his own brain. Rik had once been a prominent scientist until a psychic probe erased all memories of his past. Now he was a humble laborer in the kyrt mills of Florina.

Knocked it out of orbit!

I listened to the sample and thought I'd give Lindstrom a try but after Scott Bricks performance of the Foundation series I knew I was probably expecting too much! I actually started with "Pepples in the Sky" after the Foundation series and was very impressed and have to say I'm even more impressed with Jon's delivery in this book! Skipping like a borderline schizophrenic between characters with flawless precision I enjoyed every line! Tremendously talented in my humble opinion! I love Scott's interpretations and must say they are both mainly to credit for getting me through the works this easily. I've listened to some other performances and I find them hard to believe and to some extent very annoying even though I would have pushed through because of the greatness of Asimovs writing. I can see the scenes in my minds eye, playing out vividly due to the construct of each setting or scene. Never too much or too little of narrating and personal perspectives. Like waves crashing and merging flowing onwards. It is strange of me to say this but in the end I felt like the book was too short. It was exiting chasing the plot but in the end it struck me as falling into place a little too easy. Personally I like the outcome but still dare to say, it felt a little rushed. Just a feeling.
Despite that, these creative people are making me dream, vividly!! Thank you all!
It's a must listen if you ask me!

Historia
Golan Trevize, former councilman of the First Foundation, has chosen the future, and it is Gaia. A superorganism, Gaia is a holistic planet with a common consciousness so intensely united that every dewdrop, every pebble, every being, can speak for all - and feel for all. It is a realm in which privacy is not only undesirable, it is incomprehensible. But is it the right choice for the destiny of mankind? While Trevize feels it is, that is not enough. He must know.

Dislike the narration.

Sorry to say rather than listening to McKeever narrate further I have to stop and read it myself. My advice is to either hire Scott Brick to narrate or lower the price of this particular edition. I know the book will be a great read but for me this this was a major issue for me.
