THE NAKED SUN

First hardback editon with Chris Foss cover art. Original blue paper-covered boards with silver titles to the spine, in the Chris Foss illustrated dustwrapper. A near fine copy, the binding firm with a slight lean to the spine, the boards fresh and bright. The contents are clean throughout and without stamps or inscriptions. Complete with the lightly rubbed dustwrapper that is just a touch faded at the spine. An attractive and uncommon hardcover edition.

The second novel in Isaac Asimov's 'Robot' series. A science fiction detective story set 3000 years in the future about a man who is sent from earth to investigate a murder on a planet where human interaction is seen as distasteful and inconvenient and has been almost entirely replaced by the use of robots and computer-based communication.
