Advertised as being from the creators of ‘Game of Thrones,’ the new Netflix series has been tagged with a misleading label that weighs a lot and means little
Read the book please… The trillogy* is on Audible. Some truly terrifying stuff. Like, >!living in a dying universe that was once an infinite garden because of the dark forest attacks that flattened spacetime into fewer dimensions, which could happen again.!<
*the last book (or some 4th book, I forgot) isn’t written by Chixen Liu, but they liked it so much they wrote off on publishing it in the series as a means to wrap up some critical questions.
I listened to the first one on audible a while back and didn’t like it so much. I had trouble connecting with the charcters. The ideas were good and from what I hear about the next ones they are even more fun. But maybe it was a translation thing. Or a style thing or a cultural thing. It felt more like Clark than Card. I feel like the show made an effort to make the characters easier for me to connect with and I appreciate that.
The article does have a point for me though- linking the Game of Thrones folks in the marketing feels like a mistake. I don’t trust them.

From what I heard, even in the original Chinese the characters are badly written. Liu Cixin just doesn’t know how to write compelling characters.
I don’t get why that’s supposed to be scary. Oh no 4th dimension smush and instant death…
Other direction dude… 2nd dimension. Also that spoiler was for a reason.
