The Foundation Trilogy by Isaac Asimov

I first read the Foundation stories back in Sci-Fi school days, and loved them. Going back and re-reading them, I found the series still holds up - and I was once again quickly plunged into the world of the Galactic Empire. Told in a straightforward, action story manner, the trilogy raises some very complex questions of self-determination, free will, and the nature of humans to forever repeat our mistakes – “Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.” Classic sci-fi that transcends the genre.
