Historia
These 11 stories, including five Chinese Galaxy Award winners, are a blazingly original ode to planet Earth, its pasts, and its futures. Liu's fiction takes the listener to the edge of the universe and the end of time, to meet stranger fates than we could have ever imagined. With a melancholic and keen understanding of human nature, Liu's stories show humanity's attempts to reason, navigate, and above all, survive in a desolate cosmos.

Historia
Among the ashes of a dying world, an agent of the Commandment finds a letter. It reads: Burn before reading. Thus begins an unlikely correspondence between two rival agents hellbent on securing the best possible future for their warring factions. Now, what began as a taunt, a battlefield boast, becomes something more. Something epic. Something romantic. Something that could change the past and the future. Except the discovery of their bond would mean the death of each of them. There’s still a war going on, after all. And someone has to win. That’s how war works, right?

This is the way the world ends...for the last time. It starts with the great red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. It starts with betrayal, and long dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the Earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.

Resumen del Editor
The instant New York Times best seller
The alternate-history first-contact adventure Axiom's End is an extraordinary debut from Hugo finalist and video essayist Lindsay Ellis. Truth is a human right.
It's fall 2007. A well-timed leak has revealed that the US government might have engaged in first contact. Cora Sabino is doing everything she can to avoid the whole mess, since the force driving the controversy is her whistleblower father. Even though Cora hasn't spoken to him in years, his celebrity has caught the attention of the press, the internet, the paparazzi, and the government - and with him in hiding, that attention is on her. She neither knows nor cares whether her father's leaks are a hoax and wants nothing to do with him - until she learns just how deeply entrenched her family is in the cover-up and that an extraterrestrial presence has been on Earth for decades.
Realizing the extent to which both she and the public have been lied to, she sets out to gather as much information as she can and finds that the best way for her to uncover the truth is not as a whistleblower, but as an intermediary. The alien presence has been completely uncommunicative until she convinces one of them that she can act as their interpreter, becoming the first and only human vessel of communication. Their otherworldly connection will change everything she thought she knew about being human - and could unleash a force more sinister than she ever imagined.
A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press
"Axiom’s End is one of the most unique science fiction novels in years. It’s a heartfelt story of alien first contact, but, luckily, unlike so many 'big idea' sci-fi books, it’s utterly unpretentious." (SYFY.com)

We think we understand the laws of physics. We think a lot of things. It was perhaps inevitable that some of them would turn out to be wrong. When the great incursion occurred, no one was prepared. Of all the things physicists had predicted, "the fabric of reality might rip open and giant monsters could come pouring through" had not made the list. But somehow, that was precisely what happened.

Historia
First Contact has not been going well. The nations of Earth are rapidly militarizing against the arrival of the Superorganism, an alien civilization that promises to destroy humanity before it can develop into a real threat. The Superorganism has done it before–to their distant transient relatives–and they could easily do it again. But the alien Ampersand and his human interpreter Cora Sabino are done with trying to save humanity from both the Superorganism and itself; to them, this is a civilization that does not deserve to be saved.

It is eleven thousand years from now . . . A lot has happened, and yet a lot is still very familiar. Ariel is a boy in a small town under a wizard’s rule. Like many adventurers before him, Ariel is called to explore a world full of unimaginable glories and challenges: unknown enemies, a mission to save the world, a girl. Here, as they say, be dragons. But none of this happens before Ariel comes across an artifact from an earlier civilization, a sentient, record-keeping artificial intelligence that carries with it the perspective of the whole of human history.

HOW DOES SHE NOT KNOW THE BATMAN THEME?
This narrator should stick to voice-over work if she is too lazy to look up the Batman theme from the 60's. Who edited this before dumping it here?
And Pulitzer is pronounced "Pull-it-sir." That's direct from the Pulitzer website... I didn't make it up. This is the kind of stuff that drives listeners like me crazy. I'm only a couple hours in, and all the characters sound super bored. This Narrator is driving me to actually read. (But of course I won't.)
Guess I'll trudge through this and hope she finds her footing.

so so
It's a good sci-fi story, I think it would probably make a good movie. Unfortunately I just couldn't connect with Cora, and the last third of the book just dragged a lot. I listened to the audiobook, so I can't be sure if my dislike of Cora is fully on the character, or if it's the performance, either way, I found my self being super annoyed at her for a lot of the story.

I was not expecting something this grand
I thought I'd try Lindsay Ellis' book, knowing her YouTube work in film analysis for some time. I didn't know it was a fiction book, even. I'm just blown away. The Axiom's End is an emotional tour de force from beginning to end, rarely relaxing from of a tight clinch of action, drama, philosophy, and sentiment. It's incredibly heartwarming at times, at other times causing an unexpected surge of internal examination. The book takes from many elements of popular culture, but it also draws up from a fathomless well of world and character building that make my own aspirations as a writer feel shriveled and stilted. This is the great American novel in its modern form, in its sci-fi form; hopefully Ellis will go on to write many more like it.

Great read. Can't wait for more from this author. This book kept me on the edge of my seat. Complete with the right amount of sci-fi, pop culture reference and plot twists. I will definitely be ordering a physical copy as well.

I truly don’t understand the hype
I do, however see how the book was targeted directly to a specific demographic. The author goes out of their way to specify that the events take place in 2007. Although published after that date. I’m not in its target demographic.

A new favorite!
I've never written a book review but I feel I have to, so here goes.
Like many, I'm a fan of Ellis' video essays and became interested in the book through them. I wasn't sure what to expect but I'm so glad I had faith in her writing because I enjoyed almost minute of the story. There was the occasional scene that dragged, particularly in some of the cat and mouse type situations as Cora is so often pursued by something. But the satisfying arc of her growing relationship with Ampersand and it's unflinching conclusion helped propel the story through the rare slowdown. I also really enjoyed a lot of the supporting cast; their relatability and banter really helped to sell some of the parts that might have been too trope-y.
I hesitated getting the audiobook because I have a physical copy coming but when I heard Oliver Thorn of Philosophy Tube was narrating it, I had to jump on it. I was initially disappointed when I found out that he only did part of the voiceover but that disappointment faded rapidly. The female narrator was far and away the stand out talent here(Sorry, Ollie! Still love ya!). Her range of voices for the characters, her pacing and emotion sucked me right into the story and never let up. I had to pause the book at times and take a break to breathe because when she was describing the main characters pain or despair, I really felt it, and things get particularly dark in the book's last half. The fantastic acting in the audiobook really pushed an already great story to an just an amazing overall experience. I'm not exaggerating when I say I can not think of a single piece of media I've enjoyed this much in at least the past year, probably longer. Highly, highly, highly recommend and I am already dying for more.
