A review by madame_liz
Prelude to Foundation by Isaac Asimov

4.5

The first ~100 pages seemed to drag about bit and felt to move rather slow. Which is why this is not rated as a 5 star read, although I did enjoy the story a lot! 
After the story picked up after this slow start it became such a fun story to read.  As someone who has so far only seen the Foundation series, it was amazing to find out how psychohistory started out. Also to see where such a controversial character as Hari Seldon came from - where he started from - has been so much fun. Hari has been a love-hate character for my entire foundation watching progress, but this book has really made me like him - although his choices are somewhat questionable and stubborn at times.  
I didn’t want to pick up „Forward the foundation“ too fast at first, but now I feel like I need to jump right into it.
4.5⭐️
