Title: Foundation's Fluke
Review: The Second Foundation Trilogy is a total disgrace to Asimov. It offers nothing new and builds on the ridiculous Gaia concept, which I think is full of new-age pretensions and stubborn ambitions to be perfect. Brin tries desperately to redeem this shameful trilogy but turns it into an allegory about Communism and democracy, stuff that's so cliched already in sci-fi literature, and turns abstractions like chaos into a virulent disease, which I think is totally preposterous. Don't waste your time with this, read the original trilogy again. Giving it one star is being over-generous.
