Neil Gaiman meets Joe Hill in this astonishingly original, terrifying, and darkly funny contemporary fantasy.
Carolyn's not so different from the other human beings around her. She's sure of it. She likes guacamole and cigarettes and steak. She knows how to use a phone. She even remembers what clothes are for.
After all, she was a normal American herself, once.
That was a long time ago, of course--before the time she calls "adoption day," when she and a dozen other children found themselves being raised by a man they learned to call Father.
Father could do strange things. He could call light from darkness. Sometimes he raised the dead. And when he was disobeyed, the consequences were terrible.
In the years since Father took her in, Carolyn hasn't gotten out much. Instead, she and her adopted siblings have been raised according to Father's ancient Pelapi customs. They've studied the books in his library and learned some of the secrets behind his equally ancient power.
Sometimes, they've wondered if their cruel tutor might secretly be God.
Now, Father is missing. And if God truly is dead, the only thing that matters is who will inherit his library--and with it, power over all of creation.
As Carolyn gathers the tools she needs for the battle to come, fierce competitors for this prize align against her.
But Carolyn can win. She's sure of it. What she doesn't realize is that her victory may come at an unacceptable price--because in becoming a God, she's forgotten a great deal about being human.
司各特·霍金斯(1969- ),美國當代幻想作傢,現居佐治亞州亞特蘭大。
關於本書的創作,身為電腦程序員的司各特·霍金斯這麼說:
我在傢裏的地下室寫作,用的是Win7颱式機。平闆和筆記本我用不瞭,手太大。
2012年夏天的那三個月,我寫完瞭《上帝的圖書館》的主體部分。那段時間,除瞭這本書,我腦子裏什麼都不想。周末的時候,我淩晨兩三點起床,一直寫到下午六點——完全沉浸其中,打字的速度都快跟不上瞭。
靈感迸發時,寫小說是最美好的事。
同樣美好的是,作為司各特·霍金斯的長篇處女作,本書剛一上市便在美國幻迷中引發瞭轟動。
故事真的精彩,腦洞非常不錯。

評分這個震撼到我瞭
評分這兩顆星都是給堅持刷完本書的我自己。
評分"Nine different times the monster won."
有些阴暗,又有些温暖,喜欢这书读起来的感觉,书里说“最难的部分是如何让她熬过训练,同时让她的心完好无损”。这书读来比《万物系列》有剧情的多,但是最后结尾却一样温暖。 为了贯彻自己的意志,为了让自己过得好些,我们努力了很多很多,努力越过各种各样的试炼,心也变得...
