I introduced one of my best friends to the series. He’s currently reading The Dark Forest - not even halfway through - and he called me and I listened to his existential crisis for 30 mins. I told him, not to worry, you’ll soon forget about your crisis because it will be replaced by pure terror. 😬

I'd like to note that Trisolaris was the first to make contact. A group of people sympathetic to other civilizations essentially asked Earth to stay quiet so that the rest of Trisolaris wouldn't find them. Yi Wenjie then sent a message back essentially saying "come get me bro" notifying the rest of Trisolaris, and the rest is history.

Quinn, there's another implication that can be drawn from this series: Dimension Strikes destroy dimensions, therefore it's only a matter of time before life destroys all dimensions. Total collapse of the universe might imply another Big Bang and the recreation of life which would ultimately destroy that universe and the cycle would continue ad infinitum.

Just finished reading the main Trilogy... I have to say thank you for exposing me to such a thoughtful story. The books really helped expand my views on civilization, society, the actions of individuals, responsibility and our place in the universe. Even though the story might get sad and dark sometimes, by the end of the third book, my outlook on life was somehow more positive

The "Dark forest" theory reminds of another Sci-fi story I read long ago: The killing star, by Charles Pellegrino.
In it, humanity discovers light-speed travel, and is attacked without provocation and brought to near-extinction by an unknown alien species, using light-speed missiles impossible to track, impossible to intercept or dodge, and devastatingly powerful.
The motivation of the alien invaders was simple: Protection. It was a pre-emptive strike against humanity, because a species with light-speed travel is far too dangerous to keep as a neighbor.
