The result is a science fiction masterpiece of enormous scope and vision. 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. Ball Lightning makes an antagonist out of atmospheric phenomena and finds moments of unbelievable suspense in scientific research. An alien civilization on the brink of destruction captures the signal and plans to invade Earth. Summary: A standalone science fiction novel from the New York Times bestselling and award-winning author of The Three-Body Problem.
Set against the backdrop of China’s Cultural Revolution, a secret military project sends signals into space to establish contact with aliens. For one, it is a novel that dodges any critical complexity in its engagement with the world, no matter how much Liu knows about lightning and. Its best-seller status is virtually guaranteed by our memory of The Three-Body Problem, though it is unlikely to win similar levels of critical praise. 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. On the whole, Ball Lightning is a worthwhile novel.
