Did I miss one of Asimov's Robot novels?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:According to my good friend, Wikipedia, Robots of Dawn is the direct sequel to Naked Sun. So I assume he’ll explain in his own time. Oh! But a look at the Robots of Dawn page says this: you are missing a short story between them. It is called Mirror Image. So there you have it. You may need a short story called Mirror Image to finish this all out. And yes, the meeting you are referring to is basically the entire short story according to Wikipedia.
