DARK FOREST Paperback – 16 August 2016

A must read for a sci fi readers. Three body problem book series is my first set of books into sci fi genre. Yet this world created by cixin liu is accommodative for a newcomer like me.A great read!!

Three body problem trilogy is one of the best sci-fi thrillers I have ever come across. Cixin Liu has been brilliant in weaving together complex ideologies, thoughts, and concepts with a fine human touch. With each character you get to experience and explore complex human emotions and feelings and how they influence the overall working of humanity. Liu's portrayal of humanity and it's collective emotional intelligence is something I have not been able to find anywhere.There have been books and essays where some of it has been included but Liu has managed to get majority of it in this one.The use of cosmic sociology and Fermi paradox is as good as anything I have read till date.He keeps you yearning for more with cleverly designed plot and builds up the suspense!Just wonderful!

This book is very interesting, and the ending is unique, which perfectly matches the title. The only issue is that it feels stretched by about 100 pages due to the unnecessary imaginary love story of Luo Ji. Otherwise, everything is great.

The first book in the series plunged me into anxiety, but this second part continues to show the human spirit relentless and unforgivable in its belief in itself. It couldn’t have been any more beautiful. The author has his faults for sure, but he kept the vision together. He has the ability to plunge you into the darkness and despair faced by the well-placed characters, the meaninglessness of life and the continued fight for survival over the ages. I can’t help but link it to another very real possibility that we might face soon…and it wouldn’t be an overstatement to say that this book restored my faith in the human spirit persevering

Excellent book. Buy it now.
