Wyobraź sobie wszechświat jako las pełen nieznanych drapieżników. Żeby przetrwać, trzeba pozostać niezauważonym – każda cywilizacja, która się ujawni, zginie.

Ziemia właśnie się ujawniła. Drapieżcy nadciągają.

Mieszkańcy Ziemi nie mogą otrząsnąć się z szoku po odkryciu, że za czterysta lat czeka ich inwazja kosmitów. Ruch na rzecz Ziemskiej Trisolaris został pokonany, ale obcy dzięki sofonom mają dostęp do wszystkich gromadzonych przez ludzi informacji. Tylko to, co się dzieje w ludzkich umysłach, pozostaje przed nimi ukryte. Staje się to bodźcem dla stworzenia programu Wpatrujących się w Ścianę, opracowania tajnych strategii, niemożliwych do rozszyfrowania zarówno dla Trisolarian, jak i dla Ziemian.

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. 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 also 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?
