“One of the world’s premier science fiction writers.”
--Newsday
“Isaac Asimov is the greatest explainer of the age.”
--Carl Sagan
“For fifty years it was Isaac Asimov’s tone of address that all the other voices of SF obeyed…. For five decades his was the voice to which SF came down in the end. His was the default voice of SF.”
--The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction
One moment Joseph Schwartz is a happily retired tailor in 1949 Chicago. The next he’s a helpless stranger on Earth during the heyday of the first Galactic Empire. Earth, he soon learns, is a backwater, just a pebble in the sky, despised by all the other 200 million planets of the Empire because its people dare to claim it’s the original home of man. And Earth is poor, with great areas of radioactivity ruining much of its soil—so poor that everyone is sentenced to death at the age of sixty.
Joseph Schwartz is sixty-two.
This is young Isaac Asimov’s first novel, full of wonders and ideas, the book that launched the novels of the Galactic Empire, culminating in the Foundation books and novels. It is also one of that select group of SF adventures that since the early 1950s has hooked generations of teenagers on reading science fiction. This is Golden Age SF at its finest.
阿西莫夫作品,必属经典!读这本书的时候,同时还在读刘慈欣的《三体》,虽然都是经典的SF小说,但是真的不是一个风格。如果说《三体》的节奏犹如现代的重金属乐一样充满恐惧死亡气息,节奏快,情节环环相扣,逼人心魄的话,《银河帝国》系列就如古典的协奏曲一般,松弛,优雅...

评分這是我看的Asimov的第一本小說,因為想要按照他書寫的順序看,所以從這本開始。畢竟他那二十幾部小說所描繪的Galactic Empire是一篇巨幅的史詩,單獨一本必然沒有那麼宏大的感覺,一定要全部融閤在一起。這本的開頭看著很普通,突然穿越到陌生的世界,細節寫得很多,或許有的人覺得囉嗦會中途放棄。 不過堅持過半之後,後麵會有小高潮,閱讀也越來越順暢。 基本算是給大傢一個籠統的overview。跟著作者構思的路程來看應該會是很有趣的過程吧。
