About this ebook

Set in the universe of the New York Times bestselling Three-Body Problem trilogy, The Redemption of Time continues Cixin Liu’s multi-award-winning science fiction saga. This original story by Baoshu—published with Liu’s support—envisions the aftermath of the conflict between humanity and the extraterrestrial Trisolarans.

In the midst of an interstellar war, Yun Tianming found himself on the front lines. Riddled with cancer, he chose to end his life, only to find himself flash frozen and launched into space where the Trisolaran First Fleet awaited. Captured and tortured beyond endurance for decades, Yun eventually succumbed to helping the aliens subjugate humanity in order to save Earth from complete destruction.

Granted a healthy clone body by the Trisolarans, Yun has spent his very long life in exile as a traitor to the human race. Nearing the end of his existence at last, he suddenly receives another reprieve—and another regeneration. A consciousness calling itself The Spirit has recruited him to wage battle against an entity that threatens the existence of the entire universe. But Yun refuses to be a pawn again and makes his own plans to save humanity’s future...

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Stopped after a few pages. The writing style is just too different and I don't enjoy the filter it gives to the character and story in general. The trilogy is perfect as such.

Not the same author and it shows. It doesn't make much sense, and I quit pretty soon because it started to ruin the trilogy. Wish I could get a refund!

To Liu Cixin's great Three Body Problem series. Not quite the same, but it's own style of lovely genius. GREAT translator too!
