Save:A bold, uneven sci-fi thought experiment that’s more fascinating for its ideas than its execution. Big on concept, light on convincing details - try it if you love speculative fiction or want a conversation starter, but it’s not for everyone.
Supernova Era by Liu Cixin is a science fiction novel that explores a world where a nearby supernova extinguishes all human life over the age of thirteen, leaving the children to fend for themselves. The book delves into themes of societal transition, political commentary, and the consequences of a global shift to a children's society. Through a nuanced exploration of how different cultures and societies might react to such a cataclysmic event, Liu Cixin presents a thought-provoking narrative that challenges readers to consider the implications of a world ruled by children.
The writing style of Supernova Era is described as a blend of science fiction and near future fiction, reminiscent of works like Lord of the Flies. The author's ability to present complex ideas in a subtle manner, coupled with a unique storytelling approach, keeps readers engaged as they navigate through a world where children must adapt to a new reality without adult guidance.
