Reseña del libro "Death's End - The Three-Body Problem (en Inglés)"

Read the award-winning, critically acclaimed, multi-million-copy-selling science-fiction phenomenon – now a Netflix Original Series from the creators of Game of Thrones.

Half a century after the Doomsday Battle, the uneasy balance of Dark Forest Deterrence keeps the Trisolaran invaders at bay.

Earth enjoys unprecedented prosperity due to the infusion of Trisolaran knowledge and, with human science advancing and the Trisolarans adopting Earth culture, it seems that the two civilizations can co-exist peacefully as equals without the terrible threat of mutually assured annihilation. But peace has made humanity complacent.

Cheng Xin, an aerospace engineer from the 21st century, awakens from hibernation in this new age. She brings knowledge of a long-forgotten program dating from the start of the Trisolar Crisis, and her presence may upset the delicate balance between two worlds. Will humanity reach for the stars or die in its cradle?

Praise for The Three-Body Problem:

'Your next favourite sci-fi novel' Wired

'Immense' Barack Obama

'Unique' George R.R. Martin

'SF in the grand style' Guardian

'Mind-altering and immersive' Daily MailWinner of the Hugo and Galaxy Awards for Best Novel

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

Cixin Liu es el autor de ciencia ficción más prolífico y popular de la República Popular China. Liu ha sido galardonado ocho veces con el Galaxy Award (el equivalente en su país al premio Hugo) y el Nebula chino, antes de convertir su «Trilogía de los Tres Cuerpos» en una obra capaz de vender un millón de ejemplares solo en China, despertar el interés unánime de todo Occidente, obtener el premio Hugo 2015 a la mejor novela y ganarse prescriptores de la talla de Barack Obama y Mark Zuckerberg.

Su enorme éxito se repite ahora en todos los mercados internacionales, gracias a los fans del género, pero también, y sobre todo, a los millones de lectores interesados en la actualidad geopolítica y en el pasado y futuro de China. Son todos ellos quienes han conseguido convertir a un perfecto desconocido, llegado del Oriente más misterioso y hermético, en una de las grandes sensaciones literarias de los últimos años.

Antes de ser escritor, Liu trabajó como ingeniero de una central eléctrica de la ciudad china de Yangquán, en la provincia de Shanxi, ahora temporalmente cerrada debido a la contaminación atmosférica.
