After the intergalactic conflicts previously narrated in The dark forest or in the first installment The three-body problem, a true alliance of civilizations has developed on the ancient planet Earth.
Under the protection of the new wisdom brought from the other side of the cosmos, the earthlings evolve in a gigantic leap of civilization.
Human science tries to assume the new paradigms, opening itself up to unfathomable possibilities up to now and that approach eternity, immortality, instantaneous communication.

They, the Trisolaris, show a willingness for their integration into the host planet. But nothing is always that easy. Human mistrust always awakens with the fatalistic idea that every benefit always hides a naughty underlying interest.

Only those ideas brought from the past and represented in the scientific itself put at risk that Orwellian and apparently profitable relationship between civilizations ...
