The book appears to be ONE LONG story about a human detective investigating the *death* of an intelligent robot. After ~100 pages, I keep expecting the human detective to discover who killed the robot. My biggest compliant is that the story topic seems more suited to a short story then a 300 page novel. Asimov spends to much time trying to develope an alternate world (Aurora) in order to solve the crime. -- Richard E. Covert (312) 979-4428 ihuxf!recovert (BTL,Indian Hill)
