Compared with Chinese science fiction novels, these science fiction novels are actually quite different. Foreign science fiction relatively pays more attention to literature rather than story. Science fiction novels such as "Frankenstein" and "Gravity's Rainbow" have been classified as literary works.
A few days later, Mike Resnick was the first to express his opinion on Facebook, ""I, Robot" deserves any praise. It is an extraordinary novel, and the author's smooth and natural translation is eye-catching. One light."
It was unintentional. Lin Han originally just wanted to publish an English version for the convenience of foreign readers. He didn't think about how much money he would make. His price on Amazon is only US$4.99, and most other books are more than US$12. .
There is no shortage of excellent ideas in Chinese science fiction, but when it comes to writing, it always feels unsatisfactory.

Domestic science fiction novels, on the other hand, focus on stories but not on literature. Perhaps this is a characteristic left over from martial arts novels.
Good books have never lacked attention. Some previous novels on Earth, such as science fiction novels such as "The Hunger Games", were also very popular. Not only did the novels sell well, but the movie box office was also a huge hit, becoming a capable The movie that won the annual box office championship in North America.
Nowadays, more and more science fiction novels have been adapted into movies, and the value of science fiction novels has also been valued. This book "I, Robot" has slowly begun to appear in the eyes of more people.

Most foreign science fiction novels, even if their creativity is average and their imagination is not outstanding, are still novels with smooth writing, clear structure and complete characterization. If it's hard science fiction, they usually choose futuristic hard science fiction very carefully, so there won't be too many technical flaws.
