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.

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.

You can see where the masterpiece of the Three Body Problem Series contributed to these great stories.

What a Great Story Teller!!

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.

Great Cixin Liu but not 3 body problem epic..
