The second part is as good as the first one.
A great combination of astrophysics, sociology, philosophy.
Luckily I read Asimov's Foundations before Cixin books and I see there are alot of references and parallels with them.
The translation to EN was better and more understandabla in the first part.
I had big difficulties imagining characters. Maybe because of Chinese names, or because of their one-dimensionality.

Kontuz izenburuaren azalpenarekin ez baduzu liburua irakurri
"Lurraren iraganaren oroitzapena" (edo "'Hiru gorputzak' ezagunagoa den) trilogiaren bigarren alea. Bigarren eskuko azoka batean ikusi nituen eta lehenagotik zekarten famagatik hartu. Harrituta itzi ninduan lehenengoak ez nuelako horrelako istoriorik espero baina denboralditxo bat pasa da bigarren hau irakurri dudanera arte (ea azkenengoa den hurrengorako ez dudan hainbesteko tarterik uzten. Gero eta liburu meheagoen zale bihurtzen ari naiz).
Hau ere oso ondo dago baina lehenengoaren sorpresa efektua galdurik 'arruntagoa' iruditu zait.
Gehien gustatu zaidana, agian izenburuaren azalpena (adi hemendik aurrera) Unibertso osoa baso ilun bat bezala irudikatzen du, non aurrerapen-maila ezberdina garatu duten zibilizazioak ehiztari ixilen antzera dabiltzaten bere burua agerian utziko duen hurrengo harrapakinaren esperoan. Ikuspuntu ilun honek irakurlea erabat astinduko du 'Gizadia' zein aurrerapen mailara heldu daitekeen (Doctorowen "Walkaway"n agertzen zena baina onean gogorarazi dit) erakusten baitio eta gero zartakoa eman.
La historia parece centrarse en ésta ocasión en los vallados, tres hombres con plena libertad para planificar la defensa de la tierra ante la futura llegada de los extraterrestres invasores, que ocurrirá dentro de 400 años.
el comienzo me está gustando, cuando lo termine actualizaré la reseña.
Alucinante. Me la he leído en tres días. ¿Existen otras civilizaciones en la galaxia? ¿Podemos contactar con ellas? ¿Y si existe ese contacto, qué podemos hacer? Seguramente darnos por jodidos. O tal vez no. A ver qué pasa en el último libro de la trilogía.
