      Golan Trevize, former Councilman of the First Foundation, has chosen the future, and it is Gaia. A superorganism, Gaia is a holistic planet with a common consciousness so intensely united that every dewdrop, every pebble, every being, can speak for all—and feel for all. It is a realm in which privacy is not only undesirable, it is incomprehensible. But is it the right choice for the destiny of mankind? While Trevize feels it is, that is not enough. He must know. Trevize believes the answer lies at the site of humanity's roots: fabled Earth . . . if it still exists. For no one is sure where the planet of Gaia's first settlers is to be found in the immense wilderness of the Galaxy. Nor can anyone explain why no record of Earth has been preserved, no mention of it made anywhere in Gaia's vast world-memory. It is an enigma Trevize is determined to resolve, and a quest he is determined to undertake, at any cost.

      Nacht aan de Costa Brava. Hij hoort haar hysterisch geschreeuw boven de brekende golven uit, en ziet haar blonde haar glanzen in het maanlicht. Hij moet haar doden... beroepshalve. Behalve zijn geliefde is zij immers een levensgevaarlijke spion. Na deze daad verlaat Michael Havelock vastbesloten de geheime dienst. Maar wanneer hij de doodgewaande vrouw op straat ziet, begint hij zich af te vragen van welke machinaties hij hey slachtoffer is...

    • In the year of grace 1345, as Sir Roger Baron de Tourneville is gathering an army to join King Edward III in the war against France, a most astonishing event occurs: a huge silver ship descends through the sky and lands in a pasture beside the little village of Ansby in northeastern Lincolnshire. The Wersgorix, whose scouting ship it is, are quite expert at taking over planets, and having determined from orbit that this one was suitable, they initiate standard world-conquering procedure. Ah, but this time it's no mere primitives the Wersgorix seek to enslave; they've launched their invasion against free Englishmen! In the end, only one alien is left alive; and Sir Roger's grand vision is born. He intends for the creature to fly the ship first to France to aid his King, then on to the Holy Land to vanquish the infidel. Unfortunately, he has not allowed for the treachery of the alien pilot, who instead takes the craft to his home planet, where, he thinks, these upstart barbarians will have no choice but to surrender. But that knavish alien little understands the indomitable will and clever resourcefulness of Englishmen, no matter how great the odds against them. . .

      Das WING 4-SYNDROM. Der Roman erzählt das Schicksal von Flüchtlingen, die sich der erdrückenden Fürsorge der Humanoiden - Roboter, die den Menschen vor allen Gefahren bewahren sollen, ihm damit aber fast alles nehmen, was das menschliche Leben ausmacht - entzogen und auf einem versteckten Planeten eine neue Zivilisation aufgebaut haben - bis eines Tages die Schiffe der Humanoiden auch auf diesen Planeten hinabsinken. Und der Schutztrupp, der jahrhundertelang auf die Gegenwehr an diesem Tag X hingearbeitet hat, ist längst zerschlagen und ohne Einfluß. Irgendwann ruhen die Hoffnungen derjenigen, die sich ihre Freiheit erhalten wollen, allein auf dem jungen Keth Kyrone - und auf den Eingeborenen des Nachbarplaneten, die ohne jede technische Zivilisation auskommen und dennoch von den Humanoiden gefürchtet werden. . .
