About this listen

Bloomsbury presents Jumpnauts by Hao Jingfang, read by Catherine Ho.

A first contact SF novel, from the Hugo Award–winning author of Folding Beijing.

2080, the world is divided, dominated by two antagonistic factions, the Pacific League and the Atlantic Alliance. Tensions are high and the smallest disturbance in the status quo could set the world on fire.

And a signal flickering through deep space could be just that spark.

As three young scientists form an alliance to decode the signal, they realise that the answers don't only lie in deep space, they also lie deep in humanity's past.

What they discover will change everything: our past, present and future.

If we have one.©2024 Hao Jingfang and Ken Liu (P)2024 Head of Zeus

Ancient aliens meets Chinese Philosophy 101

I really enjoyed the “ancient aliens” part, but I was generally bored by the Chinese philosophy discussions. I did look up quite a few things - just as the translator encouraged it - and overall I enjoyed that not everything was translated. I feel that I learned a lot and now I’m more inspired to read Chinese science fiction. The nicknaming kinda came through and there were a handful of moments when I managed to appreciate the lack of translations.
