The Dark Forest by Liu Cixin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Once again I must say that my mind was blown reading the second book that belongs to "Remembrance of Earth's Past Series". The First book, "The Three-Body Problem", start off the story with an unusual concept. The Human race will be at war with an alien civilization known as the trisolarians. Why is it in a usual concept? This is a war of wits in the beginning.
There are a lot of reviews about the first book out there on the internet. And of course, you can find a plot and a summary on Wikipedia. The second book brings in a new concept, how does one defeat an opponent where the opponent can see everything one does but one cannot see everything the opponent does? And the opponent lets one know that he or she has that ability? And that ability will be more refined as time progresses. It is almost like the Anti-Moore's Law. When one reads the second book, one will find out how it is done And the hero is not a westerner. I can't wait to read book three.
