Donovan's review
Second Foundation (Foundation 3) by Isaac Asimov
As much as I did not enjoy reading Foundation and Empire, I had a good time with Second Foundation. I’m pretty sure that this is because in Second Foundation individual actions were actually of importance. What a character did mattered; and therefore, I could care about it again. I felt conflicted because I was almost allied with the Mule in the first half of the book because at least he had some influence and I could be interested in what he was doing. In the second half, who doesn’t like a precocious and plucky heroine? [And I know some people don’t, but it’s sort of rhetorical.:]
