About the Books. The Foundation series follows mathematician Hari Seldon, whose invention of psychohistory allows him to predict the fall of the Galactic Empire and the thirty-thousand-year dark age that would follow — unless a Foundation of scholars is established to shorten the interregnum. Foundation introduces Seldon's plan and the fledgling colony on Terminus. Foundation and Empire sees the Foundation tested by the last gasps of Imperial power and the terrifying rise of a mutant conqueror known as the Mule. Second Foundation reveals the hidden order working in the shadows to keep Seldon's plan on course. Written later but set earlier, Prelude to Foundation takes readers back to a young Hari Seldon's first steps toward his revolutionary theory, set against the intrigue of a crumbling Empire. Foundation's Edge and Foundation and Earth push the story into new territory as Golan Trevize hunts for the truth behind Seldon's plan and the long-lost location of Earth itself.
