The Space War

Description： The "Great Dreamer" sci-fi classic series includes four works: "Fall of Civilization," "The Space War," "The Lover's Farewell," and "The Whale Rider." Since Liu Cixin's "The Three-Body Problem" won the Hugo Award and the domestic sci-fi film "The Wandering Earth" gained popularity, Chinese sci-fi literature, once quiet, has entered a vibrant and flourishing era. Many works have been included in language textbooks and frequently appear in middle and high school language exams.

Chen Qiufan, Zhang Ran, Bao Shu, and AQue, four visionary young sci-fi writers, are recognized as leaders of China's sci-fi golden generation. Their works differ from the historical context and knowledge systems of Wang Jinkang and Liu Cixin, offering more innovative and imaginative insights that cater to the tastes of new-generation readers.

Among these, "The Space War" is a quintessential collection of hard sci-fi classics in the Zhang Ran style. It includes seven works: "When the Sun Falls," "Homecoming," "The Cramped City," "Goodbye Doraemon," "Emotional Fallacies," "Welcome to Samna," and "Three Stories of Humans and Dogs." The collection features a diverse range of styles, from warm to cold, with strong visual and immersive elements. The stories depict future space military battles, illustrating a scene where, one day, when you gaze at the sky, the burning fire is neither the apocalypse nor a dream, but a new battlefield of human desire. Author Biography： Zhang Ran is a sci-fi author and founder of the Science and Fantasy Growth Fund. Born in December 1981, he began writing sci-fi novels in 2012 and is the second sci-fi writer, after Wang Jinkang, to win both the Galaxy Award and Nebula Award with his debut work. He has published over twenty short and medium-length stories and has won the Galaxy Award four times and the Nebula Award five times. His published works include the novel collection "The City of Wind."
