"Trantor Falls" is Harry Turtledove's contribution to the 1989 anthology Foundation's Friends: Stories in Honor of Isaac Asimov, edited by Isaac Asimov and Martin Greenberg. It is a piece of fan fiction set in the universe of Asimov's famous Foundation series and recounts the story of the fall of Trantor, the capital world of the Galactic Empire, as observed by citizens of the Second Foundation: an event not depicted in Asimov's Foundation stories, but periodically offhandedly referenced as having happened between the two halves of Foundation and Empire.
