Novel idea. A bit boring at some points due to repetitive lines/concepts. Not nearly as good as the novels from Cixin.
Wow, what a roller coaster ride of emotions. From deep loneliness and sadness to hopeful dreams and then sudden shock of an ending, the sensation of a delicate ball dropped, bouncing at the soft cushion with a soar better crashing with a shatter. Give me more.
Interesting concept. The ending shocked me. I enjoyed the story, but unlike some of the others by this author, I'm totally fine not reading anything else about this. Honestly, I don't think I could have enjoyed a full novel, so everything went better than expected.
Another great story from Cixin Liu. If you are a Sci Fi fan, try these.
Thought provoking, but not overly amusing.
Lilliputian indeed.
Good entertaining science fiction.
-De los excelentes bocaditos deliciosos que te dejan con hambre.- Género. Relato.Lo que nos cuenta. Una de las naves fletadas por la humanidad hace 25.000 años para explorar diferentes sectores espaciales en busca de planetas habitables, la UNS Ark, está volviendo a la Tierra con un retraso de 9.000 años sobre su llegada prevista. Su único tripulante, al entrar en el Sistema Solar y cruzar la órbita de Plutón, descubre que hace unos 18.000 años se produjo el temido estallido de actividad solar q...
The Micro-Age was a short story than managed to pull my three-point-five-star rating up to a four-star rating through the ending. It was an easy read, one that gripped throughout, but it didn’t completely wow me at first. I was certainly curious and wanted more details, but it wasn’t until I experienced the surprise at the end that I felt it was worth it.This is certainly one that is worth sticking with to see how it plays out.
Este relato de Liu no me ha gustado tanto como otras. Es más una anécdota extendida, que en ciertos puntos es bastante inverosímil (en cuanto a la complejidad, ¿seguro que el tamaño importa?). Sin mucha historia. Podría ser una utopía CF, pero hay elementos que cojean y quedan sin explicación.En la parte buena, las excelentes imágenes de Liu, que tiene un talento innegable para hacer fotografías a lo posible.
If you want a stupid story with some of the most annoying characters you're likely to encounter, then do I have a book for you. Even writing this review gives this pitiful excuse for a book too much credit. It's simply a brainfart of an established author that would be an embarrasment at even a high-school level. There's no character work. There's no story. The world is built on poor science and even worse understanding of human nature. The dialogue is atrocious and I wanted to personally beat e...
A funny LITTLE read.However, some parts of the story are not convincing. For example, how did the macro-humans fail to include the necessary safeguards to prevent only one macro human from remaining? If the macro-humans were sophisticated enough to have very fast star ships, how were they not sophisticated enough to figure out which stars would have habitable planets? But those issues are obviously not the focal point of the story, so it is best to put them aside and enjoy the interesting premis...
既然地球的资源有限，那就只能减少人类自己消耗的资源。如何做到这点呢？大刘给出了一个很新颖的想法：人类进入微纪元
Quiero harto a Liu Cixin, es como mi abuelo chino que me cuenta cuentos cursis y ñoños pero re bonitos.
缺乏说服力，人怎么可能变得像一个细胞大小？那他们还是由细胞构成的么？还有，宏世界的人怎么可能如此轻易的放弃他的身份，更不可能也不应该随便决定了他同胞的生命。
Great short stories, one and all
Fantástica historia corta de ciencia ficción. Es tan corta (6 capitulos de nada) que ni vale la pena explicar de qué se trata. Si te gusta la ciencia ficción, esta historia tiene una idea central muy interesante y un final que te deja con ganas de leer mil páginas más sobre ese (micro) mundo. Muy recomendable.Tengo ganas de leer más sobre este autor (es la primera vez que leo a un autor chino), espero que traduzcan alguna novela suya pronto, porque de momento solo hay historias cortas como ésta
挺有创意的科幻小说
Utterly delightful!This short story gave me so much needed hope.
I found the micro humans to be very annoying. Yes, he explains why they are. Kind of. It was very hand-wavy.Also, if he was carrying a bunch of human embryos in his ship, WHY DID HE GO ON AND ON ABOUT HOW HE’S THE LAST (macro) HUMAN? And that humanity is extinct?
