Hmm. Wondering if I should stop watching 3 body problem and read the books? The concepts/ideas in the show are really fascinating and I imagine they are explored more deeply in print. But how is the writing (or rather, translation)? Worth it or no?

Thanks for the response! What do you like most about the books? A few people say the writing is lacking. What do you think?

I did find both of them a bit slow to get into. That aside, I found them thought provoking and entertaining. Engaging with big topics like game theory of civilizations across the galaxy, morality, technology. Second half’s of both books I couldn’t put down, lots of surprises and curveballs.
