I was was wondering if anyone had list of the complete foundation chronology.
I have the one that is in the Author's Note of Prelude To Foundation. Believe
it or not I have been reading science fiction for almost 20 years and I just
picked up _Foundation_ this summer. I've decided I would like to read all of
the books. I know their has been at least one other book written (_Forward
The Foundation_) since this chronology was current.

Also, is it even necessary or preferable to read them in order?

Here is what I have so far.
1. The Complete Robot

Robot novels
2. The Caves of Steel
3. The Naked Sun
4. The Robots of Dawm
5. Robots and Empire

Empire novels
6. The Currents of Space
7. The Stars, Like Dust-
8. Pebble in the Sky

Foundation novels
9. Prelude to Foundation
10. Foundation
11. Foundation and Empire
12. Second Foundation
13. Foundation's Edge
14. Foundation and Earth

Thanks for any help.

I have read everything that you have listed below except for The
_Complete Robot_. Like you I started with _Foundation_ after having passed
it by for many years. My choice was to read the original trilogy and then
move forward and backward in time from there. I think reading them
chronologically would be equally satisfying. It is the ever expanding view
of his historical landscape that I found most fascinating.
