/lit/ - Literature

Read, maybe a third of it.
All i was imagining were chinks.
Dropped it.

This is the actually worst part of the trilogy. The beginning is needed for the ground of the story. From of this first chapter to the very end is a fucking climax.

>>21312325
You misunderstand me. I didn't drop it because it was bad, I dropped it because it was full of Chinks.

>It will became the main topic of nerd discussion for the next years.
Why? It had its day

>>21312351
Cause Game of thrones authors are gonna produce a tv series the next year.

I'm not a big fan of the Chinese, so I'm probably never going to read this book. I just don't like them! If your name is Chinese or otherwise Oriental I'm just not going to read you! Just how it works, I'm afraid. The three body problem is one thing, sure. But there's another problem of 1.2 billion bodies that requires more urgent attention.

Fuck off, Chang. Most people are already aware of it and Obama was hyping it 5 years ago. When it gets its inevitable Netflix adaptation you can shill on /tv/.

>>21312325
>n-no the part you're read is actually the shit part just keep reading on it gets amazing I promise
kek no

yes they are making a shitty netflix movie i know

Sweet, hundreds of new opportunities to say "sure, but the books are way better"

>spending a month to read a shitty sci-fi when you can watch it in 2 hours or ignore it in 0

Did you hit post a decade ago and now its just gone through?

what was trisolarians' tax policy?

It's a shit book and a shit series. Mildly interesting premise but fails horribly in the execution, with large swaths of the latter books being written like a history textbook and main characters treating "public opinion" as described by the narrator as the word of god and being highly influenced by it for no good reason. Also ends on a super doomer note that makes you question why you wasted dozens of hours reading the series.

anyone recommend any similar series? I liked the massive scope/timeline and not being able to guess what was going to happen next

Socialist
Everyone's taxed dry

>>21312310
Friendly reminder that Wade did nothing wrong and Cheng Xin was a pointless character.

>>21312310
How can anyone read this garbage? I could not get through more than the first chapter, it's like a machine translated this.

>>21312331
you are so funny man kek , chinks am i right ? thank god i have a cool underground group of people who are as edgy as me and hate chinks hehe.

>Chinks butchering eachother and targeting intellectuals and dissenters durring the Bolshevik Revolution
That was the only good part. The rest was unlikable 2d characters being despicable idiots. The books are forced meme garbage except the redpills on communication--the footsoldiers were thrown out with the trash lol!

>>21312310
I've read the trilogy in English and listened the audio books in Finnish. Pretty good books.

Best part in the whole series is when that one guy in the second book floats outside a space station window and assassinates a bunch of scientist bigwigs who advocate for old school chemical rockets, because he knows that focusing on new tech is the only way humanity has any chance of surviving. Very kino.

>>21312318
lmao

>>21312353
will the show be set in China?

>>21318373
finn translation is also censored?

>>21318980
he also figured the DF way before MC
2nd book is the coolest one

>>21314228
Idk if those are the features that interested you the most maybe foundation trilogy

The netflix version will be garbage. China is producing the real live version of book 1 and then an animated series for books 2 and 3.

I just finished book 3 myself and am looking forward to these adaptations.

Also how he spends a fuck load of time tracking down some meteorites so he can create bullets out of them so when they investigate the deaths they will believe the meteor fragments are from a natural micro meteorite.

>>21319668
looks good thanks for the rec mate

I liked it

>>21318980
Best part for me is when he falls into the lake and "discovers the secret of the universe"

>>21314228
>massive scope/timeline and not being able to guess what was going to happen next
Diaspora maybe but is super hard sci-fi

>>21312310
>>21318980
Most importantly: does it have a jade skinned beauty? Does someone say you have eyes but cannot see mt tai? Unnecessary murder?

>>21321003
Best part was the guy barfing which makes him rotate in zero g

>>21312318
God, this hit hard.
For some reason, because a chinaman wrote it, I just think it can’t be good.

Not because of his race, but because it’s *china*. I can’t help but think some commie propagandists and censors have been through it.

Feels tainted.

Martian Chronicles by Bradbury. Easy read and will save you several hours of drudgery
