A satirical fable, a political allegory and an ecological warning from
the author of The Three-Body Problem. On an otherwise ordinary day in
the late Cretaceous, the seeds of Earth's first and greatest
civilization were sown in the grisly aftermath of a Tyrannosaurus'
lunch. From humble tooth-picking origins, ants and dinosaurs – two
species so unalike and yet so complementary – forged an alliance
that culminated in an antimatter-powered Age of Wonder. But such
magnificent industry came at a price – a price paid first by Earth's
biosphere, and then by all those dependent on it. And yet the
dinosaurs refused to heed all warning of impending ecological
collapse, leaving the ants facing a single dilemma: destroy their
allies... or perish alongside them? 'Made my brain itch with its
creativity and klaxon alarm... Deceptively simple and brilliantly
clever, I simply adored it' LoveReading 'Liu's sense of fun is
contagious' Locus
