Reviews / Votes
Wildly imaginative, really interesting... The scope of it was immense -- Barack Obama A marvellous melange 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 Times * A milestone in Chinese science fiction * New York Times * The best kind of science fiction -- Kim Stanley Robinson A breakthrough book... a unique blend of scientific and philosophical speculation, politics and history, conspiracy theory and cosmology, where kings and emperors from both western and Chinese history mingle in a dreamlike game world, while cops and physicists deal with global conspiracies, murders, and alien invasions in the real world -- George R.R. Martin Even what doesn't happen is epic * London Review of Books * Cixin Liu began his massively ambitious trilogy with this dazzling work of SF... Hard to sum up in a few short lines, but one you read it you'll be doing your best to tell everyone else to follow suit * SciFi Now *More details
