    Classic Asimov
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 9, 2009*

Legendary author Isaac Asimov has written a tale full of murder and political intrigue along with some great science fiction.The Trantorian empire is closing in on it's conquest of the galaxy.  But, the planet Sark stands in the path of this conquest.  Sark is an independent planet but, more important, is its sale of kyrt.  Kyrt, a cotton-like substance, is the foundation of most of the materials in the galaxy and is only available from Sark.Sark doesn't produce kyrt by itself.  Instead, kyrt is grown on the planet Florina.  Sark uses the population of Florina as cheap slave labor to produce kyrt.  Many have tried, but none have succeeded in growing kyrt anywhere but on Florina.  These imitations are more like plain cotton and nowhere near the quality of kyrt.  Due to this relationship, Sark has become extremely powerful and wealthy, while Florina has suffered under the rule of Sark.But, a man has entered the picture with information which could prove devastating to Sark, Florina, and Trantor.  This man claims to have knowledge that Florina and it's valuable supply of kyrt is in danger of being destroyed.  This leads to an exciting story of murder, political manuvering, and intrigue.I'm a big fan of science fiction, but this is only the 2nd Asimov novel that I've read, the other being the classic "Nightfall", which I also recommend.  I thought this book was good, but I had some difficulty following the story.  I thought Asimov introduced too many characters in such a short book, too.  However, I did enjoy the story and I plan on reading "Pebble in the Sky" and "The Stars, Like Dust".Asimov is one of the masters of science fiction authors, and this book is a good choice for fans of science fiction.

    Intrigue among the oppressed
  

*by M***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 4, 2019*

Isaac Asimov's The Current's of Space is part of his Galactic Empire series. In this standalone novel, a technician with bad news for a planet has his memory wiped to forestall revelation as part of an unrevealed plan. He is left on an oppressed world where the natives are maintained as virtual slaves while another planet lords over them and milks the wealth arising from monopolistic control of a unique resource. As memory slowly returns, different cultural and political as well as economic and scientific interests converge to avert a global disaster.Asimov presents a futuristic version of the antebellum South with a material akin to cotton serving as the unique resource from which another planet derives their wealth. He also deftly displays competing interests vying for position within the overall galactic empire. The backseat both science and basic human dignity take relative political and economic interests as well as raw personal ambition, while not desirable, is nevertheless quite realistic. While still short in the areas of character development, the plot is well structured and unfolds nicely.
