I don't often go in for essays, the word makes me flashback to a lot of uni. But when I saw "A View from the Stars" by Cixin Liu was was curious. I've read his stories but I don't know much about the man himself or how he thinks. Glad I listened.

Narrated by Brian Nishii, conveying the wonder of sci-fi and the concepts Liu evokes had me watching the sky while I listened.

Reasons to read:
-It made me ponder
-There are short stories, one of which is a li rle targeted towards me
-A non-comical moment in Liu's life had me howling because of the exact same event occurred in my father's life with Gene Roddenberry
-Made me question what I enjoy about sci-fi and be happy about it

Cons:
-Dang, snuck in another science horror on me

Great collection of short stories, loved them all. Looking forward to reading more of his stories and all his work
