Robots and Empire by Isaac Asimov

Robots and Empire by Isaac Asimov - 383 pages
Book 4 of The Robot Series

Unlike the previous three books, a mysterious murder hasn't been committed to be solved.  This book is set many years into the future, after Elijah Baley's death.  Earth has sent people to settle new worlds in the galaxy.  Spacers are upset that they are being outshone by the Earthpeople and its settlers.  Robots Daneel and Giskard are tasked with using Giskard's special powers to ultimately stop a conspiracy planning to decimate the Earth, all while staying in line with the Three Laws of Robotics... and a fourth, unwritten law that they have discovered?
