I'm amazed that Tolkien managed to write something that I've been able to appreciate and love for 21 years, even if for the last 4 or 5 there * are* parts that I skip (those long-ass descriptions do push my patience now, unlike when I was younger), while I'm sadly disappointed that most of Asimov's stuff has lost its luster as I've grown up (Nightfall is still one my top 10 of all times, tho), which makes me not recommend it to older friends ... but as soon as my nephews hit their teens, they are getting the Foundation trilogy as a gift from me.

I'm prepared to argue pretty much the opposite, that the style and form is the story, that there's nothing left when you take those things away, that the story of Asimov's "Nightfall" written by H.P.
