Originally published in Chinese in 2022, where the novel has received more than 10 million online reads. A question many readers have asked after finishing it:Is this science fiction for the AI age—or popular science disguised as a novel? The world’s largest dam is about to fail.But the warning comes from an AI simulation that cannot explain why. What begins as a scientific mystery soon expands into a geopolitical crisis, as new forms of warfare—including geological weapons—push human civilization to the brink of destruction. Yet beneath the escalating conflict lies a deeper question: What if everyone is reasoning correctly from the wrong model of reality? The Veil of Grand Gorge is the first book of the Ripple series, a philosophical hard-science-fiction thriller about civilization, intelligence, war, and the dangerous gap between what humanity knows and what it merely believes it knows.
