Wow that was a wild ride! That is one unique scifi book for sure. There are a gazillion ideas that could make up for a dozen other books. A lot of very interesting science concepts (which are a bit hard to grasp sometimes) that expand the Dark forest theory. One of the letdown is the characterisation of gender (male vs female) which was a bit irritating and outdated. All in all, a book packed with many awestruck ideas that is worth reading!

Book #3 of Remembrance of Earths Past (Three Body Problem)
Science Fiction
This is a hard Sci-Fi trilogy that takes a reader on a journey through space and time. Following many different characters that in their small ways effect what happens over the course of centuries and millennia.
Book 3 is an epic conclusion to all that came before it. It has everything and nothing to do with the previous books. It's physics, mathematics, philosophy, and civilizations. There is so much going on but the translation in this one was easy to follow and for the most part captured attention and had a good flow.
