From Library Journal
To Emperor Cleon I, the science of psychohistory seems to offer the opportunity to predict and direct the course of his Galactic Empire. To Hari Seldon, discoverer of the still theoretical science, it becomes a nightmare as the young historian becomes the most wanted man in the colonized universe. An intricately twisted plot, uncomplicated but amiable characters, and an abundance of leisurely explication mark Asimov's latest addition to his classic Foundation novels. While familiarity with earlier titles is not necessary, series followers will particularly enjoy this prequel. Recommended.JC

Kurzbeschreibung
It is the year 12,020 G.E. and Emperor Cleon I sits uneasily on the Imperial throne of Trantor. Here in the great multidomed capital of the Galactic Empire, forty billion people have created a civilization of unimaginable technological and cultural complexity. Yet Cleon knows there are those who would see him fall - those whom he would destroy if only he could read the future.
Hari Seldon has come to Trantor to deliver his paper on psychohistory, his remarkable theory of prediction. Little does the young Outworld mathematician know that he has already sealed his fate and the fate of humanity. For Hari possesses the prophetic power that makes him the most wanted man in the Empire... the man who holds the key to the future - an apocalyptic power to be know forever after as the Foundation.

Prelude to Foundation was simply incredible. It surpasses any movie I have seen, by far, and is probably my favorite book of all time (unless it's Foundation itself). The book not only manages to amaze and shock you, but it does so repeatedly! When you finish this book, you easily need to take a 10 to 15 minute period lost in deep thought, pondering the book.
This book is so powerful, if you take the time out to read it, you will be forced by mere curiosity to read the other 5 novels in the Foundation Series.

A few years ago, I remembered reading an Asimov (I don't remember which one it was, but it had lots of short stories.) I was bored, and told my dad if he could recommend a book. He got me this one, and I thought, "Cool, I liked the first Asimov I read, I'll love this one." This was great! The whole book leads you into thinking one thing, but you're totally tricked at the end. In the first Asimov I had read, he tricked me a couple times. But the tricks in this were similar, and I considered the same possibilities, but didn't truly believe they would be correct. He's a really good writer, and my only advice about the book is: Always keep in mind the three laws of robots (you'll know them if you've read another Asimov.) This book is great! Psychohistory was a really cool idea. What if we can predict things like that?

The story is undebatably great -- but this edition by Bantam has its pages crammed full with letters, in spite of all laws of good printing.
Buy another edition if you care about things like this.
The cover is great, though.

Best one
I see this book as a great beginning for ISaac Asimov's books. I first read this book and then got into more of his books.
Enjoy!
