Cixin Liu

El desenlace de la magistral trilogia de ciencia ficcion con 4 millones de lectores en China, convertida en un best seller de The New York Times y de Spiegel.

Tras El problema de los tres cuerpos y El bosque oscuro, la tensa espera de la humanidad concluye ahora con un ultimo episodio, tan extraordinario como los anteriores, lleno de ideas electrizantes y una calidad de obra maestra.

Ha pasado medio siglo de la batalla del Dia del Juicio Final y la Tierra goza de una prosperidad sin precedentes gracias al conocimiento transferido por Trisolaris. Mientras la ciencia humana avance y los trisolarianos adopten la cultura terricola, ambas civilizaciones podran convivir sin temor a ser destruidas. Pero con la paz la humanidad se ha vuelto autocomplaciente. Despues de una larga hibernacion, Cheng Xin, una ingeniera aeroespacial de comienzos del siglo XX, despierta en esta nueva era. Su mera presencia, sumada a cierta informacion sobre un proyecto olvidado desde el principio de la Crisis Trisolariana, podria alterar el fragil equilibrio entre ambos mundos… ?Alcanzara el ser humano las estrellas, o morira en su cuna? .

El fin de la muerte, galardonado con el Premio Locus 2017 y nominado al Hugo 2017, es el desenlace de la magistral trilogia de ciencia ficcion china que ha conquistado a cinco millones de lectores en todo el mundo.

Cixin Liu es el escritor de ciencia ficcion mas relevante de China, capaz de llevarse el Premio Hugo 2015 a la mejor novela, deslumbrar a lectores y medios de los cinco continentes y conseguir prescriptores de la talla de Barack Obama, Mark Zuckerberg o George R.R. Martin.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The New York Times bestselling conclusion to a tour de force near-future adventure trilogy from China’s bestselling and beloved science fiction writer.

With The Three-Body Problem, English-speaking readers got their first chance to read China’s most beloved science fiction author, Cixin Liu. The Three-Body Problem was released to great acclaim including coverage in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal and reading list picks by Barack Obama and Mark Zuckerberg. It was also won the Hugo and Nebula Awards, making it the first translated novel to win a major SF award.

Now this epic trilogy concludes with Death’s End. 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 daily and the Trisolarans adopting Earth culture, it seems that the two civilizations will soon be able to co-exist peacefully as equals without the terrible threat of mutually assured annihilation. But the peace has also made humanity complacent.

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