Death’s End
From the article
Just wow. I found it a really good book that made me think about the universe, my place in it, and its treatment of AI and scientific ideas.
Death’s End – Liu Cixin
Just wow. I found it a really good book that made me think about the universe, my place in it, and its treatment of AI and scientific ideas.
It also made me think about the purpose of life. I thought that purpose was not given in advance; our actions give life its purpose. That felt magical to me.

In October 2019, I listened to it again, and the book was again very good.
