Asimov authorized a few different experiments in his robot world.
Roger MacBride Allen's Caliban trilogy are the best Asimov books Asimov never wrote. A shame e-books don't appear to be available. The books capture Asimov's feel, but to be honest, Allen is a better writer.
The series examines what the effect of living with Three Law robots would have on humanity. Very good series that should remain available.
I have seen fan scans of the trilogy, but I guess that's neither here nor there.
There were some other robot series Asimov authorized:
Robot City,
Robots and Aliens and
Robots in Time. Each was a six book series where each book had a different author. Not bad.
There was also a trilogy by
Mark W. Tiedemann: Mirage, Chimera and Aurora. I haven't read those yet.
Lastly, there's an
I, Robot trilogy by Mickey Zucker Reichert. I just discovered these myself. I think I'll give the first book a shot. It's $2.99
