The Three-Body Problem

by Liu Cixin
The Three-Body Problem - Thryft
The Three-Body Problem - Thryft

Award-winning sci-fi phenomenon of a virtual world.

Recommended for fans of mind-bending science fiction that explores the potential impact of human actions on the universe and possible alien civilizations. The Three-Body Problem is an immensely imaginative novel that creates a vast, complex world that will stay with you long after you finish the book. Liu's vivid descriptions of a world governed by the three-body problem and his exploration of themes such as the dangers of radicalism and the power of human determination make this a must-read for sci-fi fans.
