Perhaps it was the abridgement, but this was just a terrible book, very out-of-character for Asimov. It begins with a interesting tri-sexual life form, but after the first section we never hear from them again. Instead, it switches to a very unsympathetic set of human characters on the moon arguing a lot and doing nothing in particular. Then it ends with a thud. I've never given a rating this low to any book.
