The second installment of China’s best-selling apocalyptic space opera trilogy.
Cixin Liu is China's #1 SF writer and author of The Three-Body Problem – the first ever translated novel to win a Hugo Award. Prior to becoming a writer, Liu worked as an engineer in a power plant in Yangquan.
A unique blend of scientific and philosophical speculation,
politics and history, conspiracy theory and cosmology
*George R.R. Martin*

immense

China's answer to Arthur C. Clarke
*The New Yorker*
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 Times*
The best kind of science fiction
*Kim Stanley Robinson*
Vivid, imaginative and rooted in cutting-edge science... Cixin
stands at the top tier of speculative fiction in any language'
*David Brin*
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'
*For Winter Nights*
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'
*Starburst magazine*
Chinese SF has been neglected in the wider world for far too
long
*Interzone*
[The Three-Body Problem and The Dark Forest are] the works of
fiction I am most enthusiastic about
*Bloomberg*
Even what doesn't happen is epic
*London Review of Books*
