“Our Dragon doesn’t eat the girls he takes, no matter what stories they tell outside our valley. We hear them sometimes, from travelers passing through. They talk as though we were doing human sacrifice, and he were a real dragon. Of course that’s not true: he may be a wizard and immortal, but he’s still a man, and our fathers would band together and kill him if he wanted to eat one of us every ten years. He protects us against the Wood, and we’re grateful, but not that grateful.”
Agnieszka loves her valley home, her quiet village, the forests and the bright shining river. But the corrupted Wood stands on the border, full of malevolent power, and its shadow lies over her life.
Her people rely on the cold, driven wizard known only as the Dragon to keep its powers at bay. But he demands a terrible price for his help: one young woman handed over to serve him for ten years, a fate almost as terrible as falling to the Wood.
The next choosing is fast approaching, and Agnieszka is afraid. She knows—everyone knows—that the Dragon will take Kasia: beautiful, graceful, brave Kasia, all the things Agnieszka isn’t, and her dearest friend in the world. And there is no way to save her.
But Agnieszka fears the wrong things. For when the Dragon comes, it is not Kasia he will choose.
An avid reader of fantasy literature since age six, when she first made her way through The Lord of the Rings, Naomi Novik is also a history buff with a particular interest in the Napoleonic era and a fondness for the work of Patrick O’Brian and Jane Austen. She studied English literature at Brown University, and did graduate work in computer science at Columbia University before leaving to participate in the design and development of the computer game Neverwinter Nights: Shadow of Undrentide. Over the course of a brief winter sojourn spent working on the game in Edmonton, Canada (accompanied by a truly alarming coat that now lives brooding in the depths of her closet), she realized she preferred writing to programming, and on returning to New York, decided to try her hand at novels.
Naomi lives in New York City with her husband and six computers. Her website is at naominovik.com
不是很懂这个套路为甚么可以是星云奖,题材保护大自然么?Wood描述得太可怕了,女主的技能太bug了,Dragon抓了这么多年的妹子,还是这么智障啊,不能忍。要不是买了小姐姐朗读的AB我真要弃…
评分终于让我把这本书看完了,整体故事其实还不错,文笔也挺好的,但是女主和Dragon的感情线真的是让我几欲弃书。然后结局是个人与自然和谐相处的寓意么?好吧还说的过去,但是感觉真的没有很好看啊,所以为啥他能得星云奖呢,难道那年的提名作品都很差么...
评分虽然故事还行,但感觉也太YA了……某短评说这是「乡村女孩与斯内普不得不说的恋爱故事」,噗哈哈。
评分“乡村女孩与斯内普不得不说得恋爱故事"-“权力的游戏,只不过我们有更多的树和更少的雪,summer is coming”-”植树造林,环保大作“-“乡村女孩与斯内普不得不说得恋爱故事"
评分Everybody will need his/her root, and I like you, mr Dragon.
随着西方文化的大量渗透,魔法、精灵、吸血鬼、恶魔等等元素成了我们熟知甚至于习以为常的事物。在小说魔戒、哈利波特掀起热潮的时候,我们热切的盼望着能够引进更多的西方魔幻主题的书籍。与此同时,国内的一些网络作者也开始大量创作以西方魔法元素为背景的网络小说,一时之...
评分 评分可能,更适合青少年看?看过为数不多的科幻都是阿西莫夫的机器人和基地系列还有三体,所以关于设定和世界观我可能。。评价不太客观?这本书的脉络很清晰,关于少女成长,关于情绪和人性的描写都比较真实和易懂,有助于认清自己的情绪并且接纳这样一个不完美的自己;关于龙君,...
评分虽然有些玛丽苏,但还是好看! 虽然是童话但非常残酷,角色该死就死,主角一步步失去更多,冲突营造的非常好。喜欢女主角的性格。 对如何使用魔法的诠释很新奇,值得记录: “那只是一种——行为方式,并没有一成不变的做法。”我向他的笔记示意。“你是在完全没有路的环境下,...
评分每个人都要与自己的根和平相处 每个人都要与自己的根和平相处,不管这根是好的还是不好的,其实也就是我们的原生家庭、遗传性格,等等。没有谁可以强大到彻底抛弃自己的原有和过去,我们的现在不过都是建立在过去的基础之上的。讲和,不那么容易,但都是我们要做的妥协。生命...
