    I recently finished the Three Body trilogy. Great set of novels by a Chinese author, Liu Cixin, but translated into English. Won the Hugo Award for best novel a few years ago. I enjoyed reading something from an author outside of immediate culture. I will add that the names can trip you up if you aren't careful.

    The trilogy name is the same as the first book.
