NOW A #1 BLOCKBUSTING FILM The Sun is dying. Earth will perish too,
consumed by the star in its final death throes. But rather than
abandon their planet, humanity builds 12,000 mountainous fusion
engines to propel the Earth out of orbit and onto a centuries-long
voyage to Proxima Centaurai... Cixin Liu is one of the most important
voices in world Science Fiction. A bestseller in China, his novel, The
Three-Body Problem, was the first translated work of SF ever to win
the Hugo Award. Here is the first collection of his short fiction: ten
stories, including five Chinese Galaxy Award-winners. This
collection's title story, The Wandering Earth, is the biggest SF movie
ever to come out of China – taking the world's #1 box office ranking
in February 2019. Liu's writing takes the reader to the edge of the
universe and the end of time, to meet stranger fates than we could
have ever imagined. With a melancholic and keen understanding of human
nature, Liu's stories show humanity's attempts to reason, navigate
and, above all, survive in a desolate cosmos.
