This book was a wonderful and quite frankly (in the end) hopeful sequal to to the three body problem. The main characters are filled will flaws and are put through hardship. From

the wallfacer project to the near-suicide of wallfacer Luo Ji

it was very developed and detailed. Also where the problem comes in. Way too damn long. So much beautiful detail, and yet I have to glaze over some of it to keep me from boredom. Overall great.

For a book whose story I feel like I understand so little, it really manages to hit something. Not sure what my emotional reaction is, but it's sure something!
