The Dark Forest

The Trisolaran crisis continues. Humanity has 400 years to prevent an alien invasion. Yet the threat of complete destruction, contrary to expectations, does not unite mankind. Superpowers defend their interests, and space fleets, becoming an independent political force, completely lose contact with Earth. Total control over scientific and technical developments by an alien civilization, vastly superior to ours in advancement, leaves humanity with no chance of victory. The outcome of the war will be determined by the "Dark Forest" projects — the best thinkers of the planet.
