The Three Body Problem (scifi) - Plenum - 12-05-2016 this is a scifi novel that won the Hugo Award in 2015. I read it in under a day.  Started yesterday afternoon (before I had to go into work), read some more this morning, after I got home, and then finished it just now, after I slept during the day. There's probably not too much I can mention ... as it's a fantastic plot, and unfolds in the most beautiful way. But I can recommend it for it's philosophical scope, the solid rooting in science (utilized in artistic ways), and the kind of speaking to the cultural/planetary mind at present. I really don't consider myself a Reader these days.  It's been a very long time since I've devoured a book so quickly.   I've actually wanted, on some level, to get back into some science-fiction reading, and actually posted a more general 'sci fi' thread a few months ago.  Let's just count this as the culmination/fruit of that 'seeking'. But yeah - this is a novel with very big 'themes'; and as all good science fiction, made individual and human by witnessing it on a personal, experienced level.
