We sci-fi fans are people from the future.\' – Cixin Liu, from the essay \'Sci-Fi Fans\'A View from the Stars features a range of short works from the past three decades of New York Times bestselling author Cixin Liu\'s prolific career, putting his nonfiction essays and short stories side-by-side for the first time.
