Novels:
Foundation
Nemesis

Short Story:
The Fun They Had

I Own:

Foundation and Empire
Second Foundation
Foundation's Edge
Prelude to Foundation
Forward the Foundation
The Gods Themselves
Pebble in the Sky

[Priestvyrce]

I've read: Foundation
Foundation and Empire
Second Foundation
Foundation's Edge( should have stopped with Second Foundation)

Elijah Bailey :
Caves of Steel
The Naked Sun( I felt the most satisfying)
Robots of Dawn( a little too melodramatic, but fine)

Empire

1. Pebble in the Sky (1950)
2. The Stars Like Dust (1951)
3. The Currents of Space (1952)

And , I, Robot.

[Hobbit]

Pretty much everything except the last three or four of the Black Widowers books and the Norby books. Not easily available in the UK. Most of the short stories you mention are collected together in one compilation or another: The Early Asimov, Nightfall and other Stories, The Bicentennial Man and Other Stories, Buy Jupiter!, Gold, Complete Robot, Complete Stories.....etc etc

Not sure about The Corner Shop one, but may have read that. They do get blurry after a while. Asimov was very good at repackaging his old stories when he stopped writing stories in the late 1960's and early 1970's, concentrating on his non-fiction work.

I've also got one that's not on your list as far as I can see: The Alternate Asimovs (which was the original unpublished versions of Pebble in the Sky, The End of Eternity and Belief).

Hobbit

[Evil Agent]

About 9 years ago was when I read Asimov... I read all 4 Robot novels, then all 7 Foundation novels... I never read the series in between, although I wish now that I had...I don't know if I'll ever get around to it.

I also read Nemesis.

[BeardofPants]

I've read all the Foundation novels, sans the prelude. The first three are amazing, the rest kinda wander off on a tangent. I've been meaning to read the I, Robot collection, and related stories.

Hello all, new here(well, was registered under another name a long time ago, but it died off)

First post here. Can't say I've read a lot of Asimov, but the Bailey/Olivaw novels come to mind, as well as Nemesis and Stranger in a Strange Land. I enjoy his work, but I have to have the mindset to read it, but great work nonetheless.

Stranger in a Strange Land is Robert Heinlein, not Asimov

[Greyseagull]

And as you can see I do a GREAT job of making a fool of myself.


Thank you for being kind about it. Don't know WHERE my mind was there. Pleased to meet you

[Shehzad]

Read almost everything other than the Norby and Black Widower books. Pretty ,uch over 90% of what's on that list.
