Yeah, this is tricky because to decide I'd have to read all of them. I only read The three body problem and that one was great - what happens when extinctionalist communism meets even worse extinctionalist communism :)

Oh, that one sounds very interesting. I have had it on my reading list for after reading the last 23 Dune Chronicle books that I haven’t read.

I'm actually currently in the middle of the third book Death's End, but I enjoyed reading the second book The Dark Forest much more than the first book. I actually thought the first book was meh, but it sets the stage for the big ideas Cixin Liu explores in the following books.

This sounds a lot like what happens with Asimov’s Robots stories! This kind of development makes for better books later in the series and is very welcome if you can make it through the book that sets everything up.
