Isaac Asimov's Robot City: Robots and Aliens #1-2
Robots Et Extra Terrestres D'isaac Asimov. [1-2]
Après La cité des robots, Isaac Asimov ouvre de nouveau son univers aux jeunes talents de la S-F et, pour la première fois, admet qu'on y introduise des extra-terrestres. Les Trois Lois de la robotique n'en demeurent pas moins de rigueur. Voici donc le premier volet – et une grande première – d'une nouvelle série approuvée par le Maître.
Quand il reçoit un appel d'une cité des robots établie sur une planète inexplorée, Derec ne se doute pas qu'Ariel et lui vont devoir relever un nouveau défi. Comment réagit un robot face à un extra-terrestre ? Les fameuses Lois de la robotique risquent d'être faussées !
Naufragé sur un monde sauvage peuplé de créatures-loups, Derec affronte Flanc d'Argent, un robot rebelle qui considère les indigènes comme des humains et fait tout pour les protéger ! Ariel, partie à sa recherche, arrive sur une autre planète, devant une cité assiégée par les corps-noirs. Ces êtres démoniaques menacent d'annihiler les installations des robots, qui mettent en péril leur écosystème.
Séparés, manipulés, Derec et Ariel sauront-ils ramener la paix sur ces deux mondes déchirés ?

About the author
Isaac Asimov
4,338 books27.7k followersWorks of prolific Russian-American writer Isaac Asimov include popular explanations of scientific principles,
The Foundation Trilogy
(1951-1953), and other volumes of fiction.
Isaac Asimov, a professor of biochemistry, wrote as a highly successful author, best known for his books.
Asimov, professor, generally considered of all time, edited more than five hundred books and ninety thousand letters and postcards. He published in nine of the ten major categories of the Dewey decimal classification but lacked only an entry in the category of philosophy (100).
People widely considered Asimov, a master of the genre alongside Robert Anson Heinlein and Arthur Charles Clarke as the "big three" during his lifetime. He later tied Galactic Empire and the Robot into the same universe as his most famous series to create a unified "future history" for his stories much like those that Heinlein pioneered and Cordwainer Smith and Poul Anderson previously produced. He penned "Nightfall," voted in 1964 as the best short story of all time; many persons still honor this title. He also produced well mysteries, fantasy, and a great quantity of nonfiction. Asimov used Paul French, the pen name, for the Lucky Starr, series of juvenile novels.
Most books of Asimov in a historical way go as far back to a time with possible question or concept at its simplest stage. He often provides and mentions well nationalities, birth, and death dates for persons and etymologies and pronunciation guides for technical terms. Guide to Science, the tripartite set Understanding Physics, and Chronology of Science and Discovery exemplify these books.
Asimov, a long-time member, reluctantly served as vice president of Mensa international and described some members of that organization as "brain-proud and aggressive about their IQs." He took more pleasure as president of the humanist association. The asteroid 5020 Asimov, the magazine Asimov's Science Fiction, an elementary school in Brooklyn in New York, and two different awards honor his name.

This was a pretty good book. Definitely interesting to see how the three Laws could be "bent" and what would happen.
