more Boring, uninspired, uninsteresting... despite a promising start (I haven't read the short story, which I assume should be nice), the developments completely fail to catch the reader's attention, so that you start to wander if this is really Asimov (whose works I really love). The characters and how they evolve/change/behave/whatever are completely unbelievable, and once you reach 3/4 of the book you really start to get nervous. It took me a lot of efforts to reach its end, and the only reason I managed to is because I was reading it in english (which is not my native language) and so it actually had a use.
