The book starts out like the setup for some punny science fiction joke: An alien walks into a museum and asks if he can see a paleontologist. But the arachnid ET hasn't come aboard a rowboat with the Pope and Stephen Hawking (although His Holiness does request an audience later). Landing at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, the spacefarer (named Hollus) asks to compare notes on mass extinctions with resident dino-scientist Thomas Jericho. A shocked Jericho finds that not only does life exist on other planets, but that every civilization in the galaxy has experienced extinction events at precisely the same time. Armed with that disconcerting information (and a little help from a grand unifying theory), the alien informs Jericho, almost dismissively, that "the primary goal of modern science is to discover why God has behaved as he has and to determine his methods."

2015年第一本,北師大迴來之後重讀此書,能不感慨。這也是我讀過的第一本原著。為瞭恢復英語水平,每天20頁,不再為瞭學英語而看原著瞭。純粹是享受。
評分看到結尾,10年後就想哭瞭,不用說400年,傢人都不在瞭,也不知道地球,人性還在不在。"your earth still outshines the sol"是多麼瞭不起的事啊!
評分"Have you ever thought about the future? I mean the far future——thousands, or even millions, of years from now."
評分天馬行空的魄力,一口氣讀完纔暢快;埋下的哲學包袱沒能抖齣深度,是佳作不是傑作。

这是我来上海后唯一看完的一本书,小说的前面部分远比后面的精彩,到了本小说真正幻的部分,我居然开始兴味索然。 显然作者是个比较有野心的家伙:P,他在大部分地方垒出了不少资料,说得如此证据确凿,仿佛我看的并不是一部小说,而是那杆“正在冒烟的枪”,比方很多“证据”...
評分 評分外星人很可爱,我可以想像,她大大的,肉肉的,性情也很温柔,很友好,可能因为是女性的缘故。她说他们的种族很好战,只是指男性成员。她是个考古学家。 -------------- 考古学家似乎都在博物馆里工作,老友记里面的Ross,好奇的乔治里面的Ted,当然还有小说里面的“我”。Ross...
