Welcome to Litsy!

(1957) In Norton's 1954 book, “The Stars Are Ours,“ scientists escape an antiscience populist government (ahem) to establish a colony on the distant planet Astra. This follow-up takes place about a hundred years later, when the colony is well established and a threat from Astra's distant past reemerges -- at the same time explorers from a very different Terra arrive. It's a good adventure, and also a light riff on themes of cultural evolution

I really liked this book and will read others in the series. I found the way the Foundation sneakily forced its presence onto surrounding planets and the way it used religion to be very interesting. I could not walk on any of the wooded trails in this area because the yellow flies were just terrible! They forced me into sunnier spaces. #audiowalk #ClassicLSFBC

I walked in the morning, so it wasn‘t a hellscape out there. Still enjoying Foundation. I remember a fair amount of women in the tv series, but I think there‘s only been one in the book so far and she was a receptionist. #audiowalk #ClassicLSFBC

I had watched some of the tv series with my husband but never read the book. It‘s not what I was expecting, but I‘m really enjoying it. I‘m already more than half way through. #audiowalk #ClassicLSFBC

59/100 I've never been a big fan of Asimov, I find his writing kind of dry, but I did enjoy the entire Foundation trilogy. The fall of the Galactic empire was predicted by Harry Seldon, and through his Foundation, the dark ages after the fall would only be 1,000 years instead of 30,000. Personally, I think the trilogy gets better as it goes along, but the first book is a solid story with plenty of interesting characters. 4🚀🚀🚀🚀 #ClassicLSFBC

I totally let this slip my mind yesterday. 🐿🧠

Anyhow.... I still did the same as the two previous weeks. Dismal is what I would call it.

My favorite book by far on this list is LOTR. I also liked I, Robot and Foundation both by Isaac Asimov. I will be rereading Foundation this month for #ClassicLSFBC

It was a close vote, but in the end, Foundation prevailed as June's selection for #ClassicLSFBC. A close second was Lord of Light, which will be the selection for July. Copies of Foundation should be available at most libraries, and I've see very cheap copies available on Ebay, the audiobook is available free on Spotify with a premium account. I hope everyone can find a copy to enjoy. @Bookwomble @Ruthiella @TheSpineView @BookmarkTavern

repost for @RamsFan1963:

We have a very eclectic selection for June's #ClassicLSFBC. I think any of them would make for a enjoyable read or reread. As usual, the book with the most votes will be for June, and the next closest will be the choice for July. I'll announce the winners on Monday. #ClassicLSFBC
