The Three-Body Problem Paperback – 12 January 2016

The three body problem trilogy by Cixin Liu is the greatest science fiction story I’ve ever read. It is astonishing how accurately Liu has been able to capture that ineffable feeling that you get, if you’ve ever looked up at the night sky and wondered about the cosmos and our place in it. The scale of this story is beyond comprehension and is filled with immense grandeur, incredible ideas, mind boggling revelations, sheer terror and deep existential dread. The level of shock and awe that some sequences in these books conjure is a thing I haven’t experienced before.

This is my first sci-fi novel, and I must say that watching the Netflix series *Three Body Problem* beforehand made it much easier to understand. Although the storyline in the series and the book differ slightly, having seen the show helped me visualize the scenes while reading.The book has a unique and intriguing storyline. It's definitely worth the purchase, but I recommend non-technical readers watch the series first. Otherwise, it might be challenging to grasp some of the concepts.

The media could not be loaded. After watching netflix series three body problem. I did got excited for 2nd season and before that i thought to read all the parts in book. Iam very excited to read and will post review after reading the book also.

By far the best science fiction I have read or watched in my life

Completely original and unique and mindblowing at times. Hard science and fertile imagination in a unique blend. This is a must read.

This book is so raw and factually pleasing. I think Netflix series have changed a lot of things that are not from the story.

My review from Goodreads:This book is endorsed by the redoubtable George R. R. Martin - First of his name, The Hirsute, Lord of House Verbosity, King of the Sea of Verbiage, Purveyor of Porn & Gore (followers of Game of Thrones will get the allusion).It is based on a First Contact scenario, albeit from a Chinese perspective. Navigating through myriad canorous sounding names like Ding, Dong, Wang, Ying, Yang, Bing Bing was a bit tiresome (no racist slur implied here; it is just that one is used to protagonists named John, Dick and Jane). The book gives a glimpse of recent Chinese history about which not much is known.The plot was quite thrilling especially the computer being constructed by aliens on yocto and zepto scales in eleven dimensions - SF aficionados will enjoy this. Now waiting for Amazon to deliver the sequels The Dark Forest and Death's End.

A very deep scientific insight into the past, present and future. A must read for the ones who are true fans of science fiction. The Netflix series on the book is also great to watch.

Buen libro

It’s an amazing book, difficult to describe though. To really appreciate the book a reader has to commit an undivided attention to it. It feels like immersing into a slow moving powerful river with all the tributary joining it and giving us more clues.We finally see the big picture and it’s awesome and terrifying at the same time- because it really can happen!I’m in awe of the author imagination and erudition. I also admire a fantastic job of the translator- Ken Liu ( any relation to the author?). I think the quality of his translation contributes to the book success.I’m moving now to start reading the part two of the trilogy. Can’t wait!

Uma estória surpreendente, única e rica, uma ótima surpresa.

Fint bunden bok av bra kvalité, men det var en stor besvikelse att trycket bara fanns på skyddsomslaget, och inte själva boken. Jag hade förväntat mig bättre av en Special Edition; därför bara 3 stjärnor.

Chinese schrijver: de namen in het boek zijn verwarrend want lijken enorm op elkaar chang, wang weng chin ling, chi
