Tried. wanted to. just couldn't get through it. I would like to revisit it the next time we study ancient history in homeschool.

"Forward the Foundation", Asimov's last novel (written just before his death, published just after), suffers from all the problems of "Prelude to Foundation" only magnified tenfold. Once again, Hari Seldon is transmogrified into an action hero to save the crisis of the day in a prequel to the older and vastly superior Foundation novels. Unlike Prelude, however, there's not enough going on outside the short-term arc to make this one worthwhile. It's just plain silly. Part of what makes the Foundation stories so great is their ability to both offer a good story and present the idea that the individual events pale in significance to the overarching history that Seldon has planned. "Forward the Foundation" accomplishes neither.
