Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

In the fifth or sixth book of the Foundation series they follow a map to Earth that mentions a planet with huge rings and a planet circled by a giant moon. Throughout the universe, this combination was so unique you could identify the home of humanity among trillions of planets.
It's a weird book but I'm glad I read it.
Well, Foundation and Earth is the fifth book of the Foundation trilogy... of course it's weird.
Similar to the five book Hitchhiker's Guide trilogy.
Yeah, but the Foundation trilogy has seven books.
The last two being prequels.
(Also it's connected to the Galactic Empire trilogy, which does have three books, but was published in reverse order, and the Robot series, a four book duology not to be confused with Asimov's other robot books, though it's set in the same universe, and also to The End of Eternity, which is set in a different timeline altogether but is sort of a prequel to the whole shebang.)
