Resumen del Editor
All the years of human civilization represent an infinitesimal fraction of the time since life first burgeoned on planet Earth. How likely is it, then, in those great depths of time, that humanity alone benefitted from the spark of intelligence that gave rise to culture?
This is the question posed by Hugo Award winner Cixin Liu, in his magisterial new short novel The Cretaceous Past. The answer he offers is unexpected, supposing an unlikely alliance between the largest creatures in the world of the deep past and some of the smallest. And it all begins with a toothache.
When a Tyrannosaurus rex suffers pain from meat trapped between its enormous teeth, a nearby colony of ants risks entering the great creature's maw to make their own repast from the remains of the dinosaur's most recent meal. From this humble beginning, over the course of millennia, a symbiotic civilization achieves amazing advances, facing dangers and exploiting opportunities at every turn.
In this absorbing tale, Cixin Liu manages to describe the history of successive epochs of a might-have-been world, doing for the past what Olaf Stapledon's classic Last and First Men did for the future.

These 11 stories, including five Chinese Galaxy Award winners, are a blazingly original ode to planet Earth, its pasts, and its futures. Liu's fiction takes the listener to the edge of the universe and the end of time, to meet stranger fates than we could have ever imagined. With a melancholic and keen understanding of human nature, Liu's stories show humanity's attempts to reason, navigate, and above all, survive in a desolate cosmos.

When Chen’s parents are incinerated before his eyes by a blast of ball lightning, he devotes his life to cracking the secret of the mysterious natural phenomenon. His search takes him to stormy mountaintops, an experimental military weapons lab, and an old Soviet science station. The more he learns, the more he comes to realize that ball lightning is just the tip of a new frontier in particle physics. Although Chen’s quest provides a purpose for his life, his reasons for chasing his elusive quarry come into conflict with soldiers and scientists who have motives of their own.

La inteligencia es un destello fugaz en la larga noche de la historia cósmica. Que pueblen la tierra no una sino dos especies inteligentes al mismo tiempo pone en cuestión cualquier cálculo de probabilidades. El hecho de que esas dos especies, tan distintas como complementarias, forjen una alianza que a su vez enciende una civilización desafía toda lógica.

The very far future: The galaxy is a drifting wreck of black holes, neutron stars, and chill white dwarfs. The age of star formation is long past. Yet there is life here, feeding off the energies of the stellar remnants, and there is mind, a tremendous galaxy-spanning intelligence each of whose thoughts lasts a hundred thousand years. And this mind cradles memories of a long-gone age when a more compact universe was full of light... The 27th century: Proxima Centauri, an undistinguished red dwarf star, is the nearest star to our sun. How would it be to live on such a world?

Historia
Anwuli Okwudili prefers to be called AO. To her, these initials have always stood for Artificial Organism. AO has never really felt...natural, and that's putting it lightly. Her parents spent most of the days before she was born praying for her peaceful passing because even in-utero she was "wrong". But she lived. Then came the car accident years later that disabled her even further. Yet instead of viewing her strange body the way the world views it, as freakish, unnatural, even the work of the devil, AO embraces all that she is.

Introducing a new translation of Laozi’s classic work that makes the intimidating approachable and the complex comprehensible. Translated by best-selling author Ken Liu and read by acclaimed actor B.D. Wong, this new take on the Dao De Jing speaks directly to the sensibilities of a modern audience. Liu dispenses with footnotes and the granular details of academic debate in favor of presenting Laozi’s invaluable writing as clearly and colorfully as possible.

FANTASTIC!!
An imaginative intelligent story that branches out from a seemingly simple storyline we get a a symbiotic cautionary tale about every civilizations basic story grappling with how to live amongst one another in harmony, told from the perspective of ant/dinosaur inter-relations in an alt cretaceous past. It was probably one of the most thrilling speculative sci-fi (if you could call it that?) I've come across in a long time. AT times humorous, at other times quite ironic, I couldn't help but compare it to human civilizations greatest historical challenges in cooperation. It's a fun quick listen but has serious enough overtones that invite deeper contemplation. I've recently also caught the new Netflix series based off Mr Lius other sci fi trilogy that was also uniquely imaginative and plan on getting the books now as well. He is an impressive story teller!
. Bravo!
Its worth the listen!

Extraordinary
Like many I came across this novel as a fan of Cixin Liu’s The Three Body Problem trilogy. Loved the story. Great narrator too.
Only thing that annoyed me is that supposedly all dinosaur species were intelligent and lived amongst each other. That’s as realistic as having an Earth civilization where there are kangaroos and horses working as engineers and administrators.

A wonderful alternate world
This was a very poignant story about humanity but explored through the Cretaceous period and the inhabitants of that world. What if we humans were not the first ones to be going through advances and technological progress?

wonderful story telling!!
This story is VERY well written. It's simultaneously written for young readers and older adults. As a professional geologist, I appreciated the alternative hypothesis, too. Narrator has an engaging, clear voice.
Very highly recommended!

Interesting listen
I found the plot concept really interesting. Given the magnitude of geologic time scales, and the range of possible planet-scale destructive events, I've often wondered how likely it would be to find any evidence at all of civilizations that existed millions of years ago (on Earth or another planet). It was fun to listen to the story and pretend to know what happened.
The style reads a little bit more like a historical summary, rather than a character-driven story that gets you interested in the individuals. It is certainly difficult to create a sense of connection to characters in a story that jumps through so much time (although I think Adrian Tchaikovsky's book 'Children of Time' does that exceptionally well), but I enjoyed this book and would recommend it.
I do think the audio reading was just ok. The reading of the main text was fine, but the character voices sounded more like caricatures. I really am curious how it would have sounded performed by someone like Robin Miles or Adjoa Andoh. I've listened to books performed by them recently, and those felt absolutely engrossing.
