OK. So I admit that I done goofed. I read The Trilogy (Foundation, Foundation and Empire, Second Foundation) last year. After finishing The Trilogy, I picked up the four other installments of the heptalogy, and without giving it much thought I read Prequel to Foundation. Shortly thereafter I read Foundation's Edge. Now I am looking to complete the series, but I don't know in which order I should read the remaining two books.

Initially it made sense to read Forward the Foundation first, but then I read the cover which refers to this book as "The breathtaking conclusion..." I get that he wrote these in an unusual order, but is book two of seven the conclusion, or is Foundation and Earth (book seven of seven) the the conclusion?

Which conclusion is the actual conclusion? Will I be more satisfied if I finish with Forward the Foundation or Foundation and Earth?

Please somebody help me out. This decision is killing me.

Tom Iftner Problem solved: I read Forward the Foundation first.

If I had the chance to do it over again, I would have read it in this order:
Foundation > Foundation and Empire > Second Foundation > Foundation's Edge > Foundation and Earth > Prelude to Foundation > Forward the Foundation.


Bbhyped You were fast and furious on this xD


Jesse Velvet I have only read the foundation so far so I have lots to look forward to.
