About Nightfall by Isaac Asimov

First published as an Isaac Asimov short story in 1941, Nightfall was later expanded into a novel in collaboration with Robert Silverberg. This edition presents a science-fiction vision of Kalgash, a planet whose inhabitants have never known darkness because six suns keep its skies bright.

As the suns begin to set, the prospect of night brings a crisis shaped by fear, religious conviction, and scientific reason. The novel explores the psychology of disaster and the struggle to face a world-changing event, making it a strong choice for readers interested in classic science fiction and civilization under pressure.
