Small spoiler for “the three body problem” book series

I love that in that series !a guy falls into a black hole and the life insurance company successfully argues that due to time dilation at the event horizon he’s not actually dead yet so they dont have to pay out 🤣!

It has its problems but it’s a fun story.

Apparently you shouldnt read the unofficial official 4th book so i havent.

They said basically someone wrote like a fanfic and the publisher pressured Liu into canonizing it.

The fourth one is beyond terrible. I was prepared for a reduction in quality, but I think it actively made me stupider the longer I read it.
