Über diesen Titel

 The second novel in Isaac Asimov’s classic science-fiction masterpiece, the Foundation series

Led by its founding father, the psychohistorian Hari Seldon, and utilizing science and technology, the Foundation survived the greed and barbarism of its neighboring warrior-planets. Now cleverness and courage may not be enough. For the Empire—the mightiest force in the Galaxy—is even more dangerous in its death throes. Even worse, a mysterious entity called the Mule has appeared with powers beyond anything humanly conceivable. Who—or what—is the Mule? And how is humanity to defend itself against this invulnerable avatar of annihilation?

Filled with nail-biting suspense, nonstop action, and cutting-edge speculation, Foundation and Empire is the story of humanity’s perpetual struggle against the darkness that forever threatens to overwhelm the light—and of how the courage of even a determined few can make all the difference in the universe.

The Foundation series (the trilogy) has aged exceptionally well, even if not to 100%.
Asimov's world-building was really impressive and the technology isn't all magic, but science based (well, they do have some sort of faster-than-light communication and travel, but, hey, it might also some day turn out to be possible)
the only downside, which I can live with, is the exaggerated 'academic' way of argumentation between the characters...

Written 1952, but still not outdated

I am quite disappointed. Not the book I expected it to be. Not a complete failure, but the Name "Asimov" lured me into believing to find here a masterpiece, wich, in my opinion, it is not. Also, it´s way to expensive for the very short playtime.

Simple, forseeable story.
