Fingers crossed it will work out this way with Three Body Problem. I will finish it

How'd it go? I finished the third book. No regrets

Also finished Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky which I actually enjoyed a lot more.. but maybe I'm a simpleton

I finished it and it picked up in the final couple of chapters, but i too still preferred Children of Time; that was maybe the most eye opening 'what if' about a completely believable alien species. I've read many SF books, but this one was the only one where i found it to be a totally convincing, completely different species.
