Comment Science Fiction and science-based fiction (Score 1) 259

I recently finished the Three-Body Problem trilogy by Cixin Liu, translated into english by Ken Liu (no relation). The first book is likely the best book I've ever read, and the trilogy expanded the scope and scale incredibly. It literally covered the ilfe of the universe.

This month I just finished reading Syndrome E by Franck Thilliez, translated into english by Mark Polizzotti. This is detective/police thriller fiction, but hard science based in the plot. I am just digging into a second book in the series called Bred to Kill. It's not really a sequel, just another book with the same police detectives.

Especially on a device with a lifespan of 5 or more technology "generations". Who knows what the hot new internet platforms will be in 2 years? 4 years? 8 years? I feel the same way about cars that integrate fancy internet services into them. I wish they'd just be dumb monitors and mirror my phone, which already does exactly what I want.
