I didn't think it was as good as Asimov's other stories, but it was an enjoyable tale nevertheless.

good classic science fiction

The Currents of Space is a classic science fiction novel that deals with the intrinsic worth of people. Although this novel seems slow at times it does deliver a strong message.

The story reminds you of Foundation. Same types of characters, same writing style. The story follows a man who's memory has been intentionally damaged, as he slowly remembers. It is a fairly quick book with only about 200 pages.
If you liked the foundation series, you will enjoy this book.

From 1952, a tight little novel of Asimov at his best, in my opinion, focuing more on the characters than on the science. Ordinary characters in extrodinary circumstances. A whodunit in space.
