FOUNDATION'S TRIUMPH BY DAVID BRIN?

Note: I guessed all the words. The only thing I didn't feel sure about was the last name, whether it was "Brin" or "Brun". I chose the former and then Googled my guess as stile allowed.

BTW, it looks like Ibby should have been given credit for and shown another N.

Nice guessing, Lardy.

Just in chase, I will throw out a V (the first letter that came into mind when I saw what was already there)

(Sorry all. Nasty migraine all day yesterday, vomiting, the whole bit so I never logged on.)

Lardy has it. Very good guess and you are right about the missing "N".

Foundation's Triumph is the third book in what is sometimes called the "second Foundation trilogy", rather a misnomer since Asimov's Foundation trilogy was originally several short stories published in magazine form and later gathered in three books, and then he wrote more novels anyway.

Janet Asimov, Isaac's second wife, authorised further sequels to his series and Gregory Benford, Greg Bear and David Brin each wrote one novel. I have enjoyed the Foundation series and his Robot series over the years particularly for its world-building. Not all his writing is that good and I find some of his attitudes unappealing but he can write a good mystery when he puts his mind to it.

The later three books follow on from how Asimov himself united his two series and explore the further consequences of robots, possibly with different interpretations of what is "best" for humanity, guiding civilisation from the background over centuries. If you like the books I recommend these later ones, although perhaps not Benford's "Foundation's Fear" because he has his own style which is not my personal favourite, but Bear's "Foundation and Chaos" and Brin's "Foundation's Triumph" rank with the best of Asimov in my opinion. If anyone is interested in reading through the series I can suggest a reading order (not chronological because some later written books occur earlier in the time line and would be spoilers for later time line books).

Hope you're feeling much better, stile. And no need to apologize at all.

Glad you are feeling better

Incorrect letters: N S

I guessed L, so doesn't that mean I can share a vowel?
