3 Body Problem Adaptation Good But Not Great
When I first heard about the Three Body Problem novels, I read them all quite quickly, and was happily surprised at how good they were. The novels weren’t just a simple scifi space opera, but a new take on how humanity would react to contact with a hostile alien species. Last year, there was an…
