The Dark Forest: The Elephants' Graveyard: Remembrance of Earth's Past, cartea 2

Autor Cixin Liu Traducere de Joel Martinsen
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 aug 2015

Soon to be a Netflix Original Series!

"Wildly imaginative." -President Barack Obama on The Three-Body Problem trilogy

This near-future trilogy is the first chance for English-speaking readers to experience this multiple-award-winning phenomenon from Cixin Liu, China's most beloved science fiction author.

In The Dark Forest, Earth is reeling from the revelation of a coming alien invasion-in just four centuries' time. The aliens' human collaborators may have been defeated, but the presence of the sophons, the subatomic particles that allow Trisolaris instant access to all human information, means that Earth's defense plans are totally exposed to the enemy. Only the human mind remains a secret. This is the motivation for the Wallfacer Project, a daring plan that grants four men enormous resources to design secret strategies, hidden through deceit and misdirection from Earth and Trisolaris alike. Three of the Wallfacers are influential statesmen and scientists, but the fourth is a total unknown. Luo Ji, an unambitious Chinese astronomer and sociologist, is baffled by his new status. All he knows is that he's the one Wallfacer that Trisolaris wants dead.

Recenzii

A unique blend of scientific and philosophical speculation, politics and history, conspiracy theory and cosmology
Wildly imaginative, really interesting... The scope of it was immense
A milestone in Chinese science fiction
Cixin Liu is the author of your next favourite sci-fi novel
China's answer to Arthur C. Clarke
A marvellous mélange of awe-inspiring scientific concepts, clever plotting and quirky yet plausible characters, all conveyed in in a plain style capable of signalling hidden depths
The best kind of science fiction
Vivid, imaginative and rooted in cutting-edge science... Cixin stands at the top tier of speculative fiction in any language'
Full of surprises and wondrous ideas... The depth of feeling here is extraordinary. Emotion and science brilliantly co-exist. To call the vision grand and ambitious seems a ridiculous understatement... I await the conclusion, Death's End, in the spring with enormous anticipation. I have no doubt that when this trilogy is complete we will have a masterpiece on our hands'
Hauntingly gentle in its delivery and gorgeous in its own wondrous atmosphere, The Dark Forest is a quiet slice of lovely science fiction... it's bursting with character and ingenuity'
Chinese SF has been neglected in the wider world for far too long
[The Three-Body Problem and The Dark Forest are] the works of fiction I am most enthusiastic about
Even what doesn't happen is epic
