A millennium into the future, two advancements have altered the course of human history: the colonization of the Galaxy and the creation of the positronic brain. On the beautiful Outer World planet of Solaria, a handful of human colonists lead a hermit-like existence, their every need attended to by their faithful robot servants. To this strange and provocative planet comes Detective Elijah Baley, sent from the streets of New York with his positronic partner, the robot R. Daneel Olivaw, to solve an incredible murder that has rocked Solaria to its foundations. The victim had been so reclusive that he appeared to his associates only through holographic projection. Yet someone had gotten close enough to bludgeon him to death while robots looked on. Now Baley and Olivaw are faced with two clear impossibilities: Either the Solarian was killed by one of his robots--unthinkable under the laws of Robotics--or he was killed by the woman who loved him so much that she never came into his presence!

This is the second book in the Baley-Daneel duo. And it's better than the first one, The Caves of Steel. The Science Fiction aspect is more creative--the Solarians are unlike any race I'm seen or read. The mystery is even tougher. Looking at the two books, The Naked Sun is almost the opposite of The Caves of Steel. The latter takes place in a confined Earth, with few robots. The former is on Solaria, a world with many robots and open spaces. Baley's reaction to the expierence rings true to his character--especially when dealing with the open spaces. To sum up, this is sequel will hook you and make you crave more. How fortunate there is a book called The Robots of Dawn!

Asimov writes a enjoyable blend of science-fiction and mystery. The pace is leisurely, and the novel might seem almost simplistic by today's sci-fi standards. Once you consider that it was published in 1957, the novel takes on an added dimension (and explains some anachronisms like the frequently exclaimed "Jehosaphat"). You can see Asimov's very creative mind at work (the crime itself could only be accomplished through science-fiction) and how shows like "Star Trek" borrow liberally from his work. Be forewarned that Asimov likes to ponder science-fiction concepts a few pages here and there.

Future tense.
Asimov is one of the science fiction writers who tend to be taken at least semi-seriously by the scientist crowd. Lesen Sie weiter...

ILLOGICAL
Too shallow, stiff and hokey. No action. No emotion. Blah. The Solarians were too extreme to swallow.

Good SF book, not a murder mystery.
Applying standard techniques of mystery analysis, you can figure out the murderer fairly easily. But Asimov is an SF ethnographer, historian, and psychologist, not an Agatha... Lesen Sie weiter...
