3 Body Problem

I'm on the second book, it's an odd one that seems to lose track of the "story" at times.

I guess they've taken the best bits to make the series, taking out a lot of the less exciting bits. I'm hoping it all makes a lot more sense towards the end.

I love the concept - very original! I can't wait to get started on the audio.

Just watched this on Netflix and must say, it's one of the best things I've seen in ages. I've ordered the Audiobook and hope that's great too

I liked the TV Adaption with a few proviso's - some of the chosen actors for characters did not seem of the type - was Auggie 'nerdy' for example?

I said this elsewhere and repeat here - Spoiler for those yet to watch:

Too many coincidences, like the cancer issue and the ship to meet the ship they were building needing less weight. How come the only people in the world hitting back were 5 Grad types from Oxford and an obnoxious leader plus a single cop/detective type - where was the rest of the worlds effort? I did enjoy the storyline but I had guessed where it was going long before that Mike Evans ship conversation. So a 6.5/10 for me

As always, the book is better than the film. Pity they switched most of it from China but at least they didn't set it in the USA. At least not the episodes I've watched so far.

I'm on the third book. Sometimes a bit clunky and the Chinese cultural differences are strong, but the overall theme is strong and worth staying with.
 
I started it based on another thread from fmttm.

Watched 3 episodes and couldn't continue. Just wasn't for me. I'm not really a sci-fi fan though

I enjoyed it but plot holes were annoying. Too many to list & not related to the science.
 
He written a lot of books. Someone recommended Ball Lightning. Also Wandering Earth which is a short story collection. There’s a Netflix film of it.
 
Just finished reading the three books. Interesting but I found it a bit unsatisfying and unresolved.
