This is the first time I've read anything by Asimov
(I have lived under a literary rock for years, and have just found the genres I enjoy)
- I picked up at my library just by chance to celebrate science fiction day.

I've always had a feeling of fear or intimidation when thinking about reading Asimov. I knew he was famous and prolific, and I assumed that the language would go over my head. I can say now that I was pleasantly surprised at how easy a read this collection was- I felt myself become so thoroughly immersed in this world of robots and interstellar travel. I especially liked the stories featuring Powell and Donovan.

Asimov has such a strong, charismatic voice. I could go on, and I'll probably come back to do so, but I'm out of time

This was a really hard book to put down, and I'm looking forward to reading more of Asimov's works :3
