* This collection contains the very first audio recording of “Mother Earth”, the short story that would become the first episode within Asimov’s Robots, Empire, and Foundation sagas.

Twenty-two of the finest science fiction short stories from one of the genre’s greatest writers, Isaac Asimov.
Isaac Asimov was the Grand Master of the Science Fiction Writers of America, the founder of robot ethics, and one of the world’s most prolific authors of fiction and non-fiction. Asimov’s short fiction has been enjoyed by millions for more than half a century. Within this collection are stories often voted among the best science fiction stories of all time, such as ‘Mother Earth’, which explores the consequences of Earth’s colonies imposing immigration quotas against Terran immigrants.
Asimov is equally adept at the creation of galaxy-spanning full-length novels and highly polished short stories. It is the second aspect of his unrivalled talent that is displayed to full adventure here. This is an unsurpassed showcase of Asimov’s storytelling talent.
