The New York Times bestselling conclusion to the groundbreaking, Hugo Award-winning series from China's most beloved science fiction author, Cixin Liu.
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. With human science advancing daily and the Trisolarans adopting Earth culture, it seems that the two civilizations will soon be able to co-exist peacefully as equals without the terrible threat of mutually assured annihilation. But the peace has also made humanity complacent.
Cheng Xin, an aerospace engineer from the early twenty-first century, awakens from hibernation in this new age. She brings with her knowledge of a long-forgotten program dating from the beginning of the Trisolar Crisis, and her very presence may upset the delicate balance between two worlds. Will humanity reach for the stars or die in its cradle?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Liu's conclusion to his Three-Body trilogy (following 2015's The Dark Forest) is an ambitious millennia-spanning space opera with enough ideas for a dozen books, but those well-thought-out concepts are more memorable than his characters. Despite the complex events of the prior two books, Liu makes the gloomy framework of his imagined future, in which humans have "finally learned that the universe was a dark forest in which everyone hunted everyone else," accessible. The bulk of the plot focuses on humankind's efforts to survive after first contact with the alien TriSolarans in the 21st century. The author makes suspension of disbelief easy with his nuanced and plausible portrayals of people's reactions to apocalyptic threats, including efforts by the military-industrial complex to make the global crisis a business opportunity. The time scale is an obstacle to emotional engagement, but there are emotionally moving moments that ground the intriguing speculations about science and human nature.
Kundenrezensionen
Es macht süchtig ....
Diese Trilogie ist eine einzigartige, großartig gezeichnete apokalyptische Phantasie, die den Leser erst fesselt und dann ratlos zurücklässt. So viele Wendungen, Irrungen und Wirrungen. Es gibt eigentlich nie die eine Hauptperson vielmehr ist es eine ganze Gesellschaft hervorragend gezeichneter Charaktere. Einzig das sehr naive und stets vom einen Extrem zum anderen Neigende Erdenvolk ist etwas oberflächlich und wirkt geradezu grotesk In seiner kindlichen Art die Welt in Gut und Böse einzuteilen. Einzigartig und erfrischend ist das chinesische Selbstbewusstsein und der asiatische Blick des Autors auf das große Ganze. Die Science Fiction kommt immer sehr glaubhaft daher und birgt Überraschungen wie Paukenschläge. Dieser letzte Band ist ein Juwel wie die beiden Vorangegangenen.
Ich leide an Entzug, ....
