Foundation

[Spoiler] The beginning left me wondering at first as only after a few pages the main character seldon had already died due to a fifty year time jump. I was not sure what to think about the book at first, but once the vault got mentioned and the several peoples' thoughts on it, I got hooked. Not because the vault is something very special in the story line, but the thought processes when discussing the topic of the vault. The book continued with great mind games by genius characters and left you in awe (some criticize that they are TOO smart).

Immidiately ordered the next two novels in the foundation series to know the fate of terminus. I'm also really curious about what happened to the second foundation on the opposite edge of the galaxy.
