Wow! Funny to hear Asimov described as modern (unless you mean it in the sense of modern vs. classical vs. post-modern etc.). But -- I love those books and want to reread them someday.. Enjoy!
Yeah, I guess it's a bit weird to call a 70 year old or so modern haha. I was think in constrat with "classical science fiction", as in "classical physics" like Verne's books. That's sort of a "lost" genre I think, unless you consider Steampunk to be sort of a successor.
right on! ok that makes sense then 😅 anyway, enjoy... I wish I could read those again for the first time! the imagery of going to Trantor, and.. well I won't say much just in case (also I don't remember much, it's been a while!)
