Yeah. Having read all three, they were interesting but not anything I'd re-read.
The opening of TBP had me hoping -- being a big Neal Stephenson fan -- that the whole book would involve a lot more of the historical context of the early PRC, and then it all went somewhere completely different. I strongly feel that the first bit of the book set in the past is the best part of the entire trilogy.
The idea of Chinese sci-fi in general becoming a thing is very cool though, I think.
