"Wildly imaginative, really interesting." ―President Barack Obama on The Three-Body Problem Trilogy. The Three-Body Problem is the first chance for English-speaking readers to experience the Hugo Award-winning phenomenon from China's most beloved science fiction author, Liu Cixin. Cixin Liu (Chinese: 刘慈欣; 1963-) is the most prolific and popular science fiction writer in China, as well as a senior engineer. For his grand narratives and superb imagination, Liu is recognized as a leading voice in Chinese science fiction. The first Asian recipient of the Hugo Award and a winner of Locus, John K. Campbell Memorial, Kurd-Laßwitz-Preis, Kelvin 505 and Ignotus Awards, he has also been nominated for the Nebula and Grand Prix de l’Imaginaire Awards. Set against the backdrop of China's Cultural Revolution, a secret military project sends signals into space to establish contact with aliens. An alien civilization on the brink of destruction captures the signal and plans to invade Earth. Meanwhile, on Earth, different camps start forming, planning to either welcome the superior beings and help them take over a world seen as corrupt, or to fight against the invasion. The result is a science fiction masterpiece of enormous scope and vision.
