 Review of The Naked Sun
I would rate this book as barely inferior to The Caves of Steel.
It contains, as does the earlier books, one of Asimov’s most vividly rendered societies and some memorable characters, including Gladia Delmarre, who comes back for two later appearances in Asimov opera.
I do find the use of the old mystery cliche of gathering all the suspects together for the dramatic denunciation of the killer a bit unnecessary, but my only real complaint with the book is the ending.

 The Nightstar Zoo :: View topic - OT: Women, Gaming, and Science Fiction
Asimov and Heinlein are pretty 'bad' at this, as far as such things go, though that may be more typical of their era and the society that shaped them than anything.
Susan Calvin's one of Asimov's better characters in this respect, though Jessie Bailey and Gladia Delmarre of the Elijah Bailey books are very 'stereotypical' women of the 1950s.
As far as female writers doing male characters better, I suspect that's more because male characters are a lot easier to write, characterization-wise, since motives can be very simple or complex...
