Overview About “The Dark Forest” by “Cixin Liu”
In his stunning debut, Cixin Liu has constructed an intricate tale of intrigue set three hundred years in China’s future. A cache of mysterious alien artifacts has been discovered in China. Half organic, half mechanical, these strange materials could yield breakthrough scientific discoveries…or they could cause a disaster beyond imagination. The alien artifacts are closely guarded by a small group of scientists and soldiers. Most with more to gain than lose from their protection. And it is up to one lone intelligence operative from Earth to infiltrate their ranks. And protect humanity from what may well prove to be its only salvation.
