A phenomenal book. A corner Stone in robotic science fiction. Isaac Asimov is one of the greats and if you haven't read this I recommend it. This is book two in the robot Series. Right after I Robot and right before the Naked Sun.

This is also a mystery. You might attract non-SF readers by adding that to the title. It is also part of the Foundation universe, which will attract zero non-SF readers.

I'll just add that you don't have to have read I, Robot to read this book.

It provides some context on robots in Asimov's universe, but this is the first part of a stand alone trilogy (that later got tied in with Foundation).

I remember reading this probably a couple decades ago. Great book. I likely have the paperback around here somewhere.

I too read these a long time ago in paperback. Definitely worth reading. Even if you aren't a Science Fiction fan, but, like mystery/suspense, you will most likely enjoy these books. My mother didn't and doesn't usually read SciFi but wanted something to read and wasn't up to going to the bookstore library. (She is big into mystery, suspense, and thrillers.) I gave her this trilogy and she was disappointed it wasn't a longer series.

I don't know about a cult but all of the books in the series were a very good read and were some of the first books I had my son read when he was 11 or 12. Very easy to read but very enjoyable.

Don't forget the Foundation TV series is coming out on Apple TV+ soon. If you haven't watched the trailers try, check then out on YouTube - the quality looks like it's gonna be really good!
