John Jenkins

The latest episode of Stars End begins with a short tribute to John Jenkins and his wonderful “Spoiler-Laden Guide to Isaac Asimov,” which I typically refer to as the “Asimov Reviews” site. Asimov Reviews is what the internet should be but only rarely is. If you’re a fan of The Good Doctor it’s a treasure trove of information about everything Asimov within which it’s easy to get lost. If you’re putting together an Asimov podcast like Stars End it’s an invaluable resource. If you have even a passing interest in Asimov and his work you owe it to yourself to check it out. You can find the site here: Asimov Reviews.

We’d been meaning to invite John onto the podcast for a while. Shortly before we recorded this episode I visited the blog portion of his site and learned that John had passed away. We don’t know if it’s possible to miss someone you’ve never met but we regret never having the opportunity to chat with him about Daneel, Hari Seldon, or “The Last Question.” We’ll remain in awe of what he accomplished with Asimov Reviews and be thankful that it exists.
