I´ve read that Christopher Nolan is going to make Foundation´s books into HBO series! I am excited.
I discoverd Asimov´s Foundation and Earth in a rally cool secondhand bookstore in Carlos Paz, Córdoba, Argentina. I am reading this book in the spanish version. I think it is the fourth book after the Foundation´s Edge... anyway... They had this...I bought it , I like it...I am planning to buy the three first books released in the 50´s

In fact, the information is not so new because I read an article dated "2014" so I guess ...on this year or maybe the following they will release it... I hope it´s spectacular...
they can take the time they want ....so as to make it great!
oh! It is news for most people because I´ve heard it´s not so known...

I agree... let them take all the time they need to make it great :) I've only read the first three books in the series. Back when I read it, Foundation was a trilogy. Have you read Asimov's short story Nightfall? Nightfall was one of the first stories I'd read that really made me think in the what-if realms.

Y'know how some imaginative stories are fun reads and some imaginative stories are thought provoking? Some of Asimov's stories stirred my imagination and put me right there in the middle of the action. They made me wonder what if? What if I were on the planet he created? What would I think? What would I do?

What-if realms isn't an actual term... It's just how I think of it :)

Stephen King is the only modern day author who makes me wonder what if. Other writers spin a good tale and I enjoy reading their stories but I don't become part of the story. I don't know if that makes sense lol.
