Summary
Bloomsbury presents Death's End by Cixin Liu, read by Daniel York Loh.

Read the award-winning, critically acclaimed, multi-million-copy-selling science-fiction phenomenon – soon to be a Netflix Original Series from the creators of Game of Thrones.
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 and, with human science advancing and the Trisolarans adopting Earth culture, it seems that the two civilizations can co-exist peacefully as equals without the terrible threat of mutually assured annihilation. But peace has made humanity complacent.

Cheng Xin, an aerospace engineer from the 21st century, awakens from hibernation in this new age. She brings knowledge of a long-forgotten program dating from the start of the Trisolar Crisis, and her presence may upset the delicate balance between two worlds. Will humanity reach for the stars or die in its cradle?

Critic Reviews

A breakthrough book... a unique blend of scientific and philosophical speculation, politics and history, conspiracy theory and cosmology, where kings and emperors from both western and Chinese history mingle in a dreamlike game world, while cops and physicists deal with global conspiracies, murders, and alien invasions in the real world' (George R.R. Martin)

Overall this book, and the series, was very imaginative and entertaining. While I didn’t always find the behaviour humankind and individual characters entirely believable, the ideas and overall arc of the story more than made up for this and I would recommend to anyone interested in imaginative sci fi

Wonderful imagination

An epic and amazing tale superbly translated and read. Enjoyed listening from start to finish.

Fantastic story

It's a personal annoyance and that's it. But I hate the way some people pronounce Uranus. Some people saying it just sounds dirty.

Pronounciation

Listing to the last book in the series as the world around us is bickering about inconsequential ideals was a balm. Hope never dies.

Complex threads of hope

The finale to the complex saga. It is my favourite as it draws all the threads together while still maintaining mystery. So wondrous in scope. Scientific cerebral erudite and well researched. A generous gift to humanity as a whole, displaying our potential and our faults, against the backdrop of this universe and humans place in it. Thanks for your brilliant books Cixin Liu.

Completely exhilarating and fascinating
