Cixin Liu's Sea of Dreams by Cixin Liu
Humanity attempts to reason, navigate and, above all, survive in a desolate cosmos. Cixin Liu's 'Sea of Dreams' is now realised as a graphic novel for the first time.The overall tone of this graphic novel well reflects Cixin Liu's thoughtful, measured pace.. It mixes questions of philosophy with realistic characters and relationships. Quirky bits of humour glimmer here and there and an overall sense of optimism prevails. I am most definitely looking forward to the rest of the series' * SF Crowsnest *
Santullo and JOK do an impressive job in this version of Sea... The style of JOK works well with Cixin's source material. It feels like it's part of the same world. JOK also does a great job on the huge set pieces in the book. Sea is not just a musing on art, but has planetwide rocket launches that JOK captures in a few pages... Sea of Dreams is an interesting and entertaining graphic novel that poses questions, but also entertains the reader' * SF Book Review *
A fascinating insight into the journey of how someone comes to terms with their own place in the world, understanding his values as both an artist and as a member of a wider society * SciFiNow *
A unique blend of scientific and philosophical speculation, politics and history, conspiracy theory and cosmology -- George R.R. Martin
Wildly imaginative, really interesting... The scope of it was immense' -- Barack Obama
A milestone in Chinese science fiction * New York Times *
A marvellous mélange of awe-inspiring scientific concepts, clever plotting and quirky yet plausible characters... Exhilarating, mind-stretching' * TLS *
China's answer to Arthur C. Clarke * The New Yorker *
