内容简介

With The Three-Body Problem, English-speaking readers got their first chance to experience the multiple-award-winning and bestselling Three-Body Trilogy by China's most beloved science fiction author, Cixin Liu. Three-Body was released to great acclaim including coverage in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal. It was also named a finalist for the Nebula Award, making it the first translated novel to be nominated for a major SF award since Italo Calvino's Invisible Cities in 1976.

Now this epic trilogy concludes with Death's End. Half a century after the Doomsday Battle, the uneasy balance of Dark Forest Deterrence keeps the Trisolaran invaders at bay. Earth enjoys unprecedented prosperity due to the infusion of Trisolaran knowledge. With human science advancing daily and the Trisolarans adopting Earth culture, it seems that the two civilizations will soon be able to co-exist peacefully as equals without the terrible threat of mutually assured annihilation. But the peace has also made humanity complacent.

Cheng Xin, an aerospace engineer from the early 21st century, awakens from hibernation in this new age. She brings with her knowledge of a long-forgotten program dating from the beginning of the Trisolar Crisis, and her very presence may upset the delicate balance between two worlds. Will humanity reach for the stars or die in its cradle?

精彩摘录

“我们不退却。”为的站了起来，绕着会议桌边走边说，“以后，不管是阶梯计划，还是别的什么计划什么事，只有我命令退却你们才能退却，在此之前，你们只能前进。”他突然一改一贯沉稳冷淡的语调，像发狂的野般声嘶力竭地咆哮起来，“前进！前进！！不择手段地前进！！！”“瓦季姆，人类不是一个抽象的概念，对人类的爱是从对一个一个人的爱开始的，首先负起对你爱的人的责任，这没什么错，为这个自责才荒唐呢！”可你应该重新认识良心和责任这两样东西，责任使你出让行星，良心使你保留恒星；责任又让你放弃恒星的能量。你是过去那种被这两样东西绑架的人，像我的导师那样：不过，在这个时代，良心和责任可不是褒义词，这两种东西表现得太多会被视为心理疾病，叫社会人格强迫症，要接受治疗的。”人类不感谢罗辑。“生存本来就是一种幸运，过去的地球上是如此，现在这个冷酷的宇宙中也到处如此，但不知从什么时候起，人类有了一种幻觉，认为生存成了唾手可得的东西，这就是你们失败的根本原因。进化的旗帜将再次在这个世界升起，你们将为生存而战，我希望在座的的毎个人都在那最后的五千万人之中，希望你们能吃到粮食，而不是被粮食吃掉。”“黑暗森林打击都有两个相同的特点：一、随意的；二、经济的。”“请解释一下。”“这不是正规的星际战争，只是顺手消除可能的威胁。所谓随意的，是说坐标被发布是唯一的打击依据，不会对目标进行近距离直接探测，只是发动打击，因为对超级文明来说，近距离探测比打击成本更高；所谓经济的，是指只进行最低成本的打击，用微小低廉的发射物诱发目标星系中的毁灭能量。”你们到这里来，一定是为了重要的使命。不过要淡定，淡定，既然末日躲不掉，就应该享受现在。死亡是唯一一座永远亮着的灯塔，不管你向哪里航行，最终都得转向它指引的方向。一切都会逝去，只有死神永生。”“再考虑一下吧。”维德说。“不需要考虑。”程心的声音异常决绝，“我再说一遍最后...
