The last of the Foundation books in order of sequence and the best book of the series. Reading about it online some people complain about the lack of an ending that satisfies questions brought up in the series but I think it ends splendidly. I also felt that we have a great conclusion to the question of why Earth and Gaia, the purpose of the Seldon plan and what the Robots were doing and why. I can't think of a better conclusion even 500 years before the end of the 1000 years "promised" us from the beginning. Gaia will continue to exert it's control until everything's unified and the galaxy will be able to hold itself against outside powers. What else can Asimov say? Some of the philosophy behind this one I've seen in other works, questions on the perception of the universe creates the universe and the idea that the galaxy seems to have been made for man are ones I very much enjoyed. If someone reads the entire series just to reach this point than it's a journey worth the effort.
