Foundation (Foundation Novels (Hardcover))

The Turtleback School & Library Binding Edition of Foundation, written by an excellent storyteller, serves as a solid foundation for the rest of the seven-volume series. The story itself is intriguing, with surprise twists and fiendish crafting in the final story that captivates the reader. However, the physical quality of the book is severely lacking. Several reviewers complained about the binding, noting that the pages began falling out only a few pages into the read. This was not an isolated incident, as multiple reviewers experienced the same issue, leading some to question the overall quality of the printing. One reviewer even stated that they had to hold the pages in order as they turned them, making for a frustrating reading experience. It is disappointing that a brand new book would fall apart so easily, especially Considering that other paperback books, even ones that are decades old, do not have this issue.
