Isaac Asimov
In a Galactic Empire that has thrived for 12,000 years, psychohistorian Hari Seldon foresees a terrible fate that will ripple across the Milky Way but his theory is shunned by the rulers. From exile on the remote planet of Terminus he sets about finding a way to alter the course of history and preserve some semblance of civilization, but an era of hostility has already emerged and threatens his young Foundation.

WINNER OF THE HUGO AWARD FOR BEST ALL-TIME SERIES




The Foundation series is Isaac Asimov's iconic masterpiece. Unfolding against the backdrop of a crumbling Galactic Empire, the story of Hari Seldon's two Foundations is a lasting testament to an extraordinary imagination, one that shaped science fiction as we know it today.



The Galactic Empire has prospered for twelve thousand years. Nobody suspects that the heart of the thriving Empire is rotten, until psychohistorian Hari Seldon uses his new science to foresee its terrible fate.


Exiled to the desolate planet Terminus, Seldon establishes a colony of the greatest minds in the Empire, a Foundation which holds the key to changing the fate of the galaxy.


However, the death throes of the Empire breed hostile new enemies, and the young Foundation's fate will be threatened first.
