    <![CDATA[This is book number two in the new Second Foundation Trilogy being  written by hard science fiction authors Gregory Benford, Greg Bear, and David  Brin, otherwise known as the &quot;Killer B's.&quot; In this book, Bear  continues where Benford's <em>Foundation's Fear</em> left off, as the trial of  legendary psychohistorian Hari Seldon is about to begin. Bear writes with a  style uncannily similar to Foundation creator Isaac Asimov's, and he even  manages to incorporate some of Asimov's own writing in the novel. Aside from the trial, Bear also focuses on the nearly immortal robots that serve the Foundation, including R. Daneel Olivaw, who is set to guide one of the Foundation's first great undertakings. But Olivaw runs into trouble from an unexpected quarter, his best operative, Lodovik Trema, whose positronic brain has been irrevocably altered in a strange accident that has given him freedom from the supposedly immutable laws of robotics. <em>--Craig Engler</em>]]>
