Friend, you’re talking about 1.4 million some words of world building. All connected. All remarkable. I neither know, nor care about the show, but do yourself a favor and read the whole 18 novel 3 story arc. Robots, Empire, Foundation. Genius.
Imo, the core trilogy is awsome. Prequels are mid, but add a lot if you want to go for the bigger picture. Sequels are awesome if you have read the robots and the empire saga.
The books are good-ish, but are wildly different from the show and I am not sure I can wholeheartedly recommend them to people just because they like the show. IMO the books, as written, wouldn’t not be able to be made into a show that most people would want to watch. And yet, I only tried watching the show because of the books and didn’t stick with it because of how different it was. It could be worth your time, but it’s not a slam dunk.
Is the book/s good? I really enjoy the show.

What’s the series? It sounds interesting!
That is all of the main story pieces, in order, from bottom to top.

Robots’ saga is awesome, Empire’s saga is meh
The books are good but very unlike the show.
I found the “genetic dynasty” stuff to be the best part of the show, and apparently it’s not even in the books
It’s a writing thing they did so they didn’t have to swap actors all the time. The first book spans several generations after all.
The genetic dynasty is one of the main reasons I didn’t watch the show
What show is this from?
Foundation
Let me know if they reply? I’d really like to know
Foundation
