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?

What Audible Listeners Are Saying
5/5 stars — “Best sci-fi I’ve ever read”
Just when I finally get my head wrapped around some huge grand mind blowing premise in this book Cixin Liu unfolds another one, over and over again. Brilliant.— Michael, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “Fermi paradox meets first contact.”
Required reading for diplomats and anthrpologists. It unfortunately may explain more than the Fermi paradox. The book is a rare book of hard scifi that extends its remit to the social sciences with a genius akin to Asimov’s Foundation Trilogy. Mr. Liu goes one better than Asimov in that he clearly specifies his axiom base and ruthlessly follows the implications.— John S. Robinson, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “Well done sir. Fantastic trilogy”
Another great delivery by P.J. Ochlan. Cixin Liu has created another great work of science fiction that was beautifully translated by Ken Liu.Those familiar with the sequel will enjoy Death’s End and the author’s visualization of complex abstract physics theories. I only give the story a 4 out of 5 as I felt the author started to overuse Deus ex machina to speed up the story so as to avoid a fourth novel (which I would have preferred).
