Gizmo Posted November 25 Share Posted November 25 Finished The Three-Body Problem, book 1 of Liu Cixin's 4-book series. Really love this guy's imagination, the way part of the mystery was revealed cleverly via the protagonist exploring a VR world was very enjoyable. I'm hoping the series as a whole is as strong as this book (only a couple of minor gripes with it). Decently translated I think too, it didn't overly Westernise some of the plot related to the Chinese cultural revolution which was important as it informs the actions of the book's main antagonist. There's a Netflix adaptation coming next year, as well as a Chinese adaptation which I'm gonna watch now I've finished this book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might want to read the other 2 before watching the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The show is doing 24 episodes, 8 per season. If they rigidly stick to the books, that's 6 episodes per book. I'll have finished the second book at least before it kicks off in January.

FWJ Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago Read this a couple of months ago and have just watched the film on Netflix. Great book - but it leaves a lot more to the imagination than the film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started reading this about a year ago, forgot about it, then picked it up again recently. Very good story. Didn’t know there was a TV version, thanks.
