" Isaac Asimov's first published novel is a lot of fun, and seems a good introduction to his oeuvre (this is the first novel of his I've read, so I can only assume). There's something very appealing about a universe in which rationality is inextricably linked to morality, ethics and sound decision-making. He isn't the best prose writer out there (the way he jumps between POV characters from paragraph to paragraph is evidence enough), but he sets out to write an entertaining story that explores some interesting philosophical ideas, and he does so very well.
