Half a century after the Doomsday Battle, the uneasy balance of Dark Forest Deterrence keeps the Trisolaran invaders at bay. Earth enjoys unprecedented prosperity due to the infusion of Trisolaran knowledge. With human science advancing and the Trisolarans adopting Earth culture, it seems that the two civilizations can co-exist peacefully as equals without the terrible threat of mutually assured annihilation. But peace has also made humanity complacent.

Cheng Xin, an aerospace engineer from the 21st century, awakens from hibernation in this new age. She brings knowledge of a long-forgotten program dating from the start of the Trisolar Crisis, and her presence may upset the delicate balance between two worlds. Will humanity reach for the stars or die in its cradle?

Han pasado casi dos meses desde que terminé la trilogía y me sigue dando escalofríos. Creo que este libro es como el terror cósmico realista, esas ideas de lo inmenso (lo inconmensurable) del universo. Lo terriblemente cruel que es la supervivencia, el poco freno que la moral puede poner a eso. Y lo peor, lo cercano y verdadero que se siente eso...

Brutal in its completeness

This one, like the last, is for the world builders. The world building is the plot. It is very detailed and thorough.

A brief warning: be careful with this book if you're depressed. It can be very depressing and possibly bring an existential dread. Even more than the second book. I had to read it pieces.

For that reason, I can't say I enjoyed this book. It is very impressive with what it's trying to do though.
