I've been curious about the book because i saw some people talking about it, another urge after the netflix show, so went to check a little the book.
I haven't read much about chinese revolution, so i became intrigued, the cultural revolution was really like that or it was exaggerated?
i sometimes watch a guy that lives on china, he says the current standing of the people today is that thr cr was a mistake because it destroyed many historical artifacts.
well, the post became more about the cultural revolution than the scifi piece itself.
First book is very good, second is slightly worse, third is horrible, fourth (by other author but accepted by originial one) is also bad but at least it gives us some acceptable closure.
And of course the CR issue which is so bad in the first book that even Obama liked it, worse in netflix show, but in book 2 we have praises for CR, just least noticeable that the brick in head at the start of book 1.
