maximander24 's review for:
The Dark Forest
by Cixin Liu
Took a while to get into itself, but thought-provoking, science-fiction madness!
I think that both this book, and the original would make a great duology, this one ended on a really good high, and felt like the sort of ending that I imagined. But, there is a sequel, which I’m quite looking forward to. This has been the best original Sci-Fi series that I have read, probably of all time. Liu managed to create an amazing universe, both in the present, slightly in the future, and the far future. I usually don’t read sci-fi, or fantasy because of the sheer amount of exposition necessary, and my ability to get wound up with the author. But the way that Liu gradually transported us into this, ultimately different, almost dystopia (my favourite genre) was pretty expert. The parallels to reality were quite interesting, and I liked how she almost approached the ‘alien challenge’
