 Has anyone here read the Three Body Problem series?
I'm only about a third of the way done with the first book (so no spoilers) but I'm interested to hear what other people's general opinions are, like how would you rate it?

 I've not read that, so, sorry. I have recently read though, The 4th Turning Is Here. Frightened the fucking life out of me😳. (I don't frighten easily).

 It's a wild ride, full of awe inspiring <hard> science fiction, philosophical topics and sociological exploration.
It can get somewhat dense at times but it definitely pays of in the long run.
I highly recommend it, I actually envy you. The first read was a blast!

Enjoy!!!

 Yeah I'm just about to start chapter 32. I really enjoyed it so far, even the dense technical stuff, actually especially the dance technical stuff.

 I love the series. It is one of the best science fiction I've ever read.

 Totally agree. Alongside Dune,  Foundation series and Hyperion.

 Have any of you read the fourth book "Redemption of time"?
I know is fan art, but is it good in your opinion?
