You can tell in a few story lines and parts he had to specifically twist some stuff to get it to get it to fit into the singular universe.
Looking forward to it regardless though. I’m done foundations and the three robots books already!
It's not about what he tried into that universe, it's what he shoehorned into the book for no reason other than to appeal to US nationalists. He has said he regrets writing that nonsensical subplot and was sorta strong armed into it, but what's done is done and it's so insanely dumb that it ruins the entire book, which is admittedly not that great without it either.
