Get the original novels, now a hit Netflix series! Titles in this set: The Three Body Problem The Dark Forest Death's End Description The Three Body Problem 1967: Ye Wenjie witnesses Red Guards beat her father to death during China's Cultural Revolution. This singular event will shape not only the rest of her life but also the future of mankind. Four decades later, Beijing police ask nanotech engineer Wang Miao to infiltrate a secretive cabal of scientists after a spate of inexplicable suicides. Wang's investigation will lead him to a mysterious online game and immerse him in a virtual world ruled by the intractable and unpredictable interaction of its three suns. This is the Three-Body Problem and it is the key to everything: the key to the scientists' deaths, the key to a conspiracy that spans light-years and the key to the extinction-level threat humanity now faces. The Dark Forest Imagine the universe as a forest, patrolled by numberless and nameless predators. In this forest, stealth is survival – any civilisation that reveals its location is prey. Earth has. Now the predators are coming. Crossing light years, the Trisolarians will reach Earth in four centuries' time. But the sophons, their extra-dimensional agents and saboteurs, are already here. Only the individual human mind remains immune to their influence. This is the motivation for the Wallfacer Project, a last-ditch defence that grants four individuals almost absolute power to design secret strategies, hidden through deceit and misdirection from human and alien alike. Three of the Wallfacers are influential statesmen and scientists, but the fourth is a total unknown. Luo Ji, an unambitious Chinese astronomer, is baffled by his new status. All he knows is that he's the one Wallfacer that Trisolaris wants dead. Death's End Read the award-winning, critically acclaimed, multi-million-copy-selling science-fiction phenomenon – soon to be a Netflix Original Series from the creators of Game of Thrones. Half a century after the Doomsday Battle, the uneasy balance of Dark Forest Deterrence keeps the Trisolaran invaders at bay. Earth enjoys unprecedented prosperity due to the infusion of Trisolaran knowledge and, with human science advancing and the Trisolarans adopting Earth culture, it seems that the two civilizations can co-exist peacefully as equals without the terrible threat of mutually assured annihilation. But peace has made humanity complacent. Cheng Xin, an aerospace engineer from the 21st century, awakens from hibernation in this new age. She brings knowledge of a long-forgotten program dating from the start of the Trisolar Crisis, and her presence may upset the delicate balance between two worlds. Will humanity reach for the stars or die in its cradle?

This paperback collection features the five thrilling novels in the dystopian survival adventure series The Maze Runner by James Dashner. This box set features all of the books in the best-selling series including The Maze Runner, The Scorch Trials, The Death Cure, The Kill Order and The Fever Code. The books are written from the perspective of sixteen-year-old Thomas, as he arrives in the Glade in the centre of a giant labyrinth filled with the most terrifying half-human, half-machine creatures designed to brutally kill anyone that tries to escape the Maze. Like the many other kids before him, Thomas has no recollection of any memories of life before the Maze, except for his name. But Thomas’ arrival sparks a change. With more dangerous tests lurking around the corner getting closer and closer, threatening their safe haven, can the Gladers escape the dreaded maze in time? But even if they do escape, they have to worry about the deadly Flare disease that continues to ravage the population outside of the Maze walls. Victims of the Flare are said to slowly decay as the virus eats away at the brain, turning those infected into bloodthirsty “Cranks” who are capable of torturing and killing any that cross their path. But now, the Gladers have an important choice to make if they are to plan their escape. Are they all immune or at risk of infection? Would it be safer to stay trapped in the maze or to find the WICKED organisation and demand their memories back? With no recollection of their past, can they really trust each other? With dividing decisions and rising tensions, the group must appoint a leader to guide them on the right path to survival. The fate of the world is in their hands, whether they know it yet or not. And if there’s one thing they must remember, it's that: WICKED is good… This is a fantastic series to keep any dystopian action fans aged 11+ entertained for hours, filled with action-packed adventures, death-defying stunts and horrifying creatures sure to keep you up at night. This collection is perfect for fans of other dystopian YA books such as Suzanne Collin's The Hunger Games trilogy and Veronica Roth’s Divergent series for more action-packed adventures, terrible twists and life-changing sacrifices.
