You may well be interested in the following information, which comes from the April SF CHRONICLE: "Isaac Asimov delivered ROBOTS TOWARD EMPIRE, a 140,000 word manuscript, to Doubleday on January 7th. The book, which takes place 200 years after ROBOTS OF DAWN is both a sequel and at the same time ties in to the Foundation series. It will be published in hardcover in September.... Asimov told SFC he has contracted with Doubleday for two more Foundation novels. Manuscripts are due to Doubleday in December 1985, and December 1986. The first will be a sequel to FOUNDATION'S EDGE; the second will be a prequel to teh series, joining hari Seldon in middle age." --- jayembee (Jerry Boyajian, DEC, Maynard, MA) UUCP: {decvax|ihnp4|allegra|ucbvax|...} !decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-akov68!boyajian ARPA: boyajian%akov68.DEC@DECWRL.ARPA <"Bibliography is my business">
