I don't have my old books, but I recall it was very tech-lite despite being supposedly very advanced.
Lite as in weapo s being "raygun", "a powerful and larger raygun", and "an advanced raygun smaller than seen before". Can't remember other tech, but it seemed to be "X-device" that does a plot-relevant thing to get to the next scene.
Asimov acted like an anti-Weber. Still wordy, but a lot of that being on describing scenery and very little on the wondrous technology itself. Most of the books (again going by my memory) were traveling from one fantastically described place to another, having a bit of a discussion, and then going somewhere else. Like The Rise of Skywalker, but with a better story and dialog.
