I guess that just shows that a book really can't be judged by its cover. Still, I've never heard of it before.

You must have heard of 1984, another book by Orwell. One of the best novels ever :)

Actually I read the "Robot's Bible" (:lol:) by Asimov : Isaac Asimov - Le Grand Livre des Robots, Chap. I : Prélude à Trantor (The Big Book of Robots, Part I: Prelude to Trantor but there isn't an English one for this book).

I started reading a book by that Asimov guy. After a chapter or two I decided it was too boring to bother finishing.
