makes sense given that psychohistory is just dialectical materialism (with math)
Man discovers dialectic materialism, universe proceeds to spend the next several millennia proving him correct.
Harder sci-fi definitely hits different than space opera
I thought these were by Isaac Asimov
Edit: oh shit you mean the art lmao
LMAO, I totally would make that mistake too! 
I loved his work on the Chanur books.
Oh man I didn't know he did those!
Foundation rips and so do these.
Definitely! I feel these three novels in particular show the Asimov turns (setup, subversion, double-subvert) very well, and the cover art captures that essence somehow.
There's something that really fucks about a triptych.
I felt the same way. Each is very interesting, but there is definitely something with them side by side. That inspired me to make this.
Transition timeline, from left to right.
I feel like I'm seeing the arrow in the FedEx logo for the first time.
If we're throwing out Asimov recommendations I highly suggest his scathing review of 1984
