In 1967 Ye Wenjie witnesses Red Guards killing her father during China's Cultural Revolution. This event shapes both the rest of her life and the future of mankind.
Four decades later, Beijing police ask nanotech engineer Wang Miao to infiltrate a secretive cabal of scientists after a spate of inexplicable suicides. Wang's investigation leads him to a mysterious online game and immerse him in a virtual world ruled by the intractable and unpredictable interaction of its three suns.
This is the Three-Body Problem and it is the key to everything from the scientists' deaths to a huge conspiration and threat to humanity.

The book looked sort of difficult, but I'm glad I decided to try it anyway. It was a truly fascinating and clever book, and not actually difficult to read. It was also interesting to get to read some Chinese science fiction.

The book is a paperback, bought from internet book store. Translated from Chinese by Ken Liu.

Paketti saapunut! Kiitos!

More sience than fiction. I skipped parts that explained scientific things to a detail (would've even in Finnish).

Many things didn't make sense. Trisolarians don't show feelings, have only work, no love, no literature, no art - and yet they have tv? Scientist decides humanity is crap (no specific reason given) and welcomes aliens she knows nothing of. The "game" made no sense either, but obviously I wouldn't be qualified to "play" anyway.

"Trust us, we're scholars!" (How about no you arrogant piece of ----)

Obviously I'm into the more light versions of scifi, more fiction than science.
