ファウンデーションの彼方へ〈上〉―銀河帝国興亡史〈4〉 (ハヤカワ文庫SF)

Asimov took the series in new directions with Foundation's Edge. I'm curious how he envisioned the story evolving beyond the original trilogy.

The layers of power struggle and ideology made it harder to follow at times — was that intentional to mirror real-world politics?

The conclusion left me pondering whether the collapse of the Empire is truly preventable or just inevitable in the grand scheme.
