The Caves of Steel - Isaac Asimov

Linda (at work) lent this to me ages ago, she's quite into sci fi. I enjoyed it but it was a bit slow going, and perhaps didn't seem as radical as it would have at the time (it's 50s) I liked the insight in to robots and man's relationship with developing technology, and there were some cool touches. In a way what's weird is that some of the predicitions he makes about the futuristic world are too normal now to be shocking...
Overall a good quick read, and a clever ending. Might read something else by him.

7.5/10
