The Netflix series is loosely based on the sci-fi novel The Three Suns, the first book in the Trisolaris trilogy, which also includes the volumes The Dark Forest and Beyond Time.

The story begins in China during the Cultural Revolution – with the decision of a woman called Ye Wenjie. She sends a message into space. True to the motto “As you call into the forest, so it sounds out”, this has devastating consequences for humanity.
60 years later, in the present day, five Oxford physicist friends are caught up in a series of inexplicable events after their mentor unexpectedly plunges to her death. Strange countdowns are driving more and more scientists around the world mad. To get closer to solving the mystery, Team Oxford must enter the world of a futuristic virtual reality game. It soon becomes clear that humanity’s greatest crisis has begun.
