Two months have past since a myriad of alien objects clenched about the Earth, screaming as they burned. The heavens have been silent since--until a derelict space probe hears whispers from a distant comet. Something talks out there: but not to us.
Who you do send to meet the alien
when the alien doesn't want to meet?
You send a linguist with multiple personalities carved surgically into her brain. You send
a biologist so radically interfaced with machinery that he sees x-rays and tastes ultra-
sound, so compromised by grafts and splices he no longer feels his own flesh. You
send a pacifist warrior whose career-defining moment was an act of treason. You
send a monster to command them all, an extinct hominid predator once called
vampire, recalled from the grave with the voodoo of recombinant genetics
and the blood of sociopaths. And you send a synthesist — an
informational topologist with half his mind gone — as an
interface between here and there, a conduit through
which the Dead Center might hope to understand
the Bleeding Edge.
You send them all to the edge of interstellar space, praying you
can trust such freaks and retrofits with the fate of a world.
You fear they may be more alien than the thing they've
been sent to find.
But you'd give anything for that to be true, if you
only knew what was waiting for them...
我其实不太敢写《盲视》的读后感了,怎么看都觉得自己只看懂了皮毛,全书给我以爽快感的同时,也让我充满了不解与困惑。 不过如果真的要评价评价的话。我觉得这个词很适合这本书:震撼。全书的阅读快感随着剧情发展直线上升,看到前段中文屋的剧情之后便欲罢不能。后期角色之...
评分以下是小说的后记选段。 原文在作者的官网处可下载。(http://www.rifters.com/real/shorts/PeterWatts_Blindsight_Endnotes.pdf) 这个后记篇幅不短,其实已经相当于一篇论文的Reference,底下的脚注也是密密麻麻。用作者的话说,这篇后记志在“让你相信我并非异想天开,又或...
core setting very scientific and exciting, but the story itself is not interesting, and the stupid part of vampire should be deleted.
评分下一本應該要來讀個輕鬆一點的科幻小說,這本真的太難啃,跟 The Quantum Thief 一樣,作者完全就是個設定控,他們不解釋!
评分totally mind-blowing! 这技术水准真是高啊
评分“深不可测”这个tag神了,软硬两块都相当内涵,hardcore程度简直发指,就冲着科学和哲学结合得非常紧密这点(前者为表后者为里),硬啃下来就绝对物超所值。另,其实我觉得这书比三体要强。
评分“满眼都是星星,不可胜数,我无论如何也无法理解,有这样多的星星,天空又怎能如此黑暗。星星,以及--虚无。”
