Luo Ji doesn't show up in the first book, I misattributed some of Wang Miao's stuff to him, my mistake.

~~IMO he was absolutely a character and his actions are pivotal at several points in the plot of the trilogy. They could've written a better personality, but literally removing the one guy who is there at every point in the plot?~~

~~The characters are definitely thin in the books, because the books are more about worldbuilding and sci fi concepts than characters and plots. My expectation is that this will be fucked up in all the same ways the Foundation series is fucked up.~~
