This trilogy follows a broad cast of characters through the centuries as earth enters a crisis following the Chinese cultural Revolution and the scientific experiments at the high security Red Coast Base. The short memory of humanity and the nature of the universe are explored in depth, revealing the true extent to which reality has been moulded by it's inhabitants.

The methodical nature in which Cixin Liu reveals the sci-fi concepts in each book makes the ideas on display accessible to all readers.

Ken Liu and Joel Martinsen did an excellent job translating this trilogy to English and their translators notes gave useful cultural and scientific context when necessary.
