My suggestion is to read the original Foundation Trilogy and the first two robot novels and I Robot before worrying about any of the other books (The Empire Novels can be read whenever you want while set in the same Universe they really have no impact on the rest of the Universe). Not to mention, I am not a huge fan of Asimov's last several novels (Foundation and Earth, Prelude to Foundation, Forward to Foundation and Robots and the Empire).Īlso, prior to Foundation's Edge and The Robots of Dawn, readers had no reason to believe the Robot stories were linked at all to the Empire/Foundation novels. Prequels that were written later but occur earlier in the story often give away information that will dramatically change your perception of the stories. Asimov's suggestions, I would actually strongly recommend not reading the following novels according to their interior chronology. I've read a good lot of these, but reading them in order is worth going through them again, I bet!ĭespite the late Dr. I found a good list online, for Isaac Asimov fans- it's his own suggested reading order for his robot stories.
