Acerca de esta escucha
A short story collection from New York Times best-selling author Cixin Liu. The title story, "The Wandering Earth", was a blockbuster international film, currently streaming on Netflix.
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.

In the sleepy English village of Midwich, a mysterious silver object appears, and all the inhabitants fall unconscious. A day later the object is gone and everyone awakens unharmed - except that all the women in the village are discovered to be pregnant. The resultant children of Midwich do not belong to their parents: all are blonde, all are golden eyed. They grow up too fast and their minds exhibit frightening abilities that give them control over others and brings them into conflict with the villagers just as a chilling realisation dawns on the world outside....

It started as a simple heist. It went to hell from there. On a space station orbiting a pale blue sun, a package changes hands. Data too sensitive to transmit will be exposed for one brief moment. The client is paying a crazy sum - if the job is clean. That’s not going to happen. Instead, the galaxy’s unluckiest crew of outlaws will have to put all their resources into salvaging what they can from the job. Even if it’s only avoiding blame for the fallout.

People work; folk play. That is how it has been in this country for as long as Sam can remember. He is happy, and he understands that this is the way it should be. People are bigger than folk. They are stronger. They do not need food or water. They do not need the warmth of a fire. All they need are jobs to do and a blacksmith to fix them when they break. The people work so the folk can drink their moonshine, fish a little, and throw horseshoes. But once Sam starts to wonder why the world is like this, his life will never be the same.

On a warm March night in 2083, Judy Wallach-Stevens wakes to a warning of unknown pollutants in the Chesapeake Bay. She heads out to check what she expects to be a false alarm—and stumbles upon the first alien visitors to Earth. These aliens have crossed the galaxy to save humanity, convinced that the people of Earth must leave their ecologically-ravaged planet behind and join them among the stars. And if humanity doesn't agree, they may need to be saved by force. But the watershed networks that rose up to save the planet from corporate devastation aren't ready to give up on Earth.

He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

But a demon is terrorizing the land, and now she's an adult (albeit barely) with responsibilities (she tells herself).

When Chen’s parents are incinerated before his eyes by a blast of ball lightning, he devotes his life to cracking the secret of the mysterious natural phenomenon. His search takes him to stormy mountaintops, an experimental military weapons lab, and an old Soviet science station. The more he learns, the more he comes to realize that ball lightning is just the tip of a new frontier in particle physics. Although Chen’s quest provides a purpose for his life, his reasons for chasing his elusive quarry come into conflict with soldiers and scientists who have motives of their own.

But a demon is terrorizing the land, and now she's an adult (albeit barely) with responsibilities (she tells herself).

The human race is at War with the "Buggers," an insect-like alien race. As Earth prepares to defend itself from total destruction at the hands of an inscrutable enemy, all focus is on the development of military geniuses who can fight such a war, and win. The long distances of interstellar space have given hope to the defenders of Earth--they have time to train these future commanders up from childhood, forging them into an irresistible force in the high orbital facility called the Battle School.

Fun stories about deep topics
There were lots of interesting ideas that I’ve never heard before. The book contained several stories, but I wasn’t entirely clear if they were all happening in the same universe and timeline or in alternate universes. Some of the stories had clear tie-ins to other books by the author. Overall, I thought it was enjoyable. The narration was good as well.

Great Cixin Liu but not 3 body problem epic..
The relatively short and separate stories in this book explores few new intriguing themes you come to expect from Cixin Liu, but also many that seems to be precursor (or probably reused) concepts jn the 3 body trilogy.. still worth the time investment in it.

Beautiful thought provoking stories
What an incredible journey through all the stories. I like how some of them connect. I enjoyed every story. The stories that I thought started off slow or I thought I was getting bored with ended up finishing magnificently. The stories that started off interesting kept that some power thru out. 5/5. I wonder if Cixin Liu is the best hard sci fi author of all time.

A great reencounter
I had read Cixin Liu's The Three Body Problem and I had loved it, so I really wanted to read this book, but after seeing the movie "The Wandering Earth" on one of the streaming sites, I assumed that's what this book is about, and I was not interested. Recently however, a friend told me that I was wrong, that despite the names being the same, this book was not the same as that movie, so I hesitantly decided to give it a try. I am so thankful to the friend who convinced me to read it! So many gems from The Three Body Problem reappear here in different guises and different contexts which along with his unique philosophical depth make the stories in this book unmistakably Cixin Liu, and the book a wonderful Cixin Liu collection. If you liked The Three Body Problem, you will enjoy this as well; and if you enjoyed this book, you will love The Three Body Problem.

Exceeded Expectations!
After the "Three Body Problem" trilogy, I wasn't sure Cixin Liu could "do it again."
But he did! Or he has. Whatever!
The short stories in "The Wandering Earth" explore and playfully play with all sorts of big ideas in ways that pull the reader in and expand the imagination.
Be prepared: This is not your well-trodden Anglo-Saxon SF. But if you are open to non-Western perspectives and modes, dive in and drink deep!
Be prepared, too, to laugh out loud at times. Cixin Liu's humor is exquisite, as when he is a character in one of his own stories.
Not sure why some reader-reviewers did not care for the narration. For me, the narrators' voices fit the stories and characters well.
In short, uncertain that any author could rival earlier masterpieces, "The Wandering Earth" exceeded my expectations, and then some.
Enjoy!
