Bloomsbury presents Ball Lightning by Cixin Liu, read by Feodor Chin

'Cixin Liu is the author of your next favourite sci-fi novel' WIRED

On his fourteenth birthday, right before his eyes, Chen's parents are incinerated by a blast of ball lightning. Striving to make sense of this bizarre tragedy, he dedicates his life to a single goal: to unlock the secrets of this enigmatic natural phenomenon. His pursuit of ball lightning will take him far from home, across mountain peaks chasing storms and deep into highly classified subterranean laboratories as he slowly unveils a new frontier in particle physics.

Chen's obsession gives purpose to his lonely life, but it can't insulate him from the real world's interest in his discoveries. He will be pitted against scientists, soldiers and governments with motives of their own: a physicist who has no place for moral judgement in his pursuit of knowledge; a beautiful army major obsessed with new ways to wage war; a desperate nation facing certain military defeat.

Conjuring awe-inspiring new worlds of cosmology and philosophy from meticulous scientific speculation, Ball Lightning has all the scope and imagination that so enthralled readers of Cixin Liu's award-winning Three-Body trilogy.

Reseñas de la crítica

A marvellous mélange of awe-inspiring scientific concepts, clever plotting and quirky yet plausible characters
A striking, strange and sometimes quite chewy standalone novel about the uneasy alliance between cutting-edge scientific research and the agencies that fund it
A fascinating piece of speculative fiction... This is unsettling and thoughtful writing... Ball Lightning does what all the best science fiction does - it makes the reader look at the world around them anew, and makes them think about the possibilities of the future'
As elusive as a Venusian scout ship and as deadly as a nest of vipers... Through these characters we learn an awful lot about ball lightning and it shows the author's deep knowledge of physics, cosmology, meteorology and the politics and morality of scientific research'
Cixin Liu is one of the most significant authors working in the genre today... Expect inspirational cosmology and philosophy with meticulous scientific speculation; Ball Lightning is likely to enthral you'
