The final installment of China's bestselling, award-winning apocalyptic space opera trilogy that ranges from the 1960s to the heat death of the Universe.
Cixin Liu is China's #1 SF writer and author of The Three-Body
Problem – the first ever translated novel to win a Hugo Award.
Prior to becoming a writer, Liu worked as an engineer in a power
plant in Yangquan.
Ken Liu is the author of the epic fantasy series The Dandelion
Dynasty, as well as two short story collections. He has won the
Hugo, Nebula, World Fantasy, and other top genre awards around the
world for his fiction. A programmer and lawyer, he speaks and
consults on futurism, technology history, and sustainable
storytelling.
A unique blend of scientific and philosophical speculation,
politics and history, conspiracy theory and cosmology
*George R.R. Martin*
Wildly imaginative, really interesting... The scope of it was
immense
*Barack Obama, 44th President of the United States*
A milestone in Chinese science fiction
*New York Times*
Cixin Liu is the author of your next favourite sci-fi novel
*Wired*
China's answer to Arthur C. Clarke
*The New Yorker*
The Three Body epic concludes with sweep and scope and majesty,
worthy of Frederik Pohl or Poul Anderson, Scholar Wu or H.G. Wells.
The universe is likely to be a rough neighborhood. See just how
rough... and how life might still prevail
*David Brin*
This is a series that I will always have on my book shelves because
of the pleasure it gives to revisit it... Credit is also due to the
translator, the extraordinary Ken Liu, for creating a read which
enables all the high level concepts to weld with the ongoing epic
story'
*Strange Alliances*
Complex and grandiose... this is a mind-altering and immersive
experience'
*Daily Mail*
The grand scale continues in this third volume... There are many
layers to this story, built up and woven together to form an
extraordinarily grand tale of mankind's future. This volume brings
the trilogy to a grand and satisfying conclusion'
*SFCrowsnest*
Cixin's trilogy is SF in the grand style, a galaxy-spanning,
ideas-rich narrative of invasion and war between humanity and the
alien 'Trisolarians'
*Guardian*
Even what doesn't happen is epic
*London Review of Books*
The narrative and conceptual momentum of the series takes off at a
scale and velocity I couldn't possibly have imagined before
reading. The Three-Body trilogy makes insignificance and
unknowability and futility seem so spiritually exciting that I felt
breathless. I'd join a book club that just discusses it every month
for a year
*New York Times*
