奥森・斯科特・卡德--Orson Scott Card
奥森・斯科特・卡德是当今美国科幻界最炙手可热的人物之一。在美国科幻史上,从来没有人在两年内连续两次将“雨果”和“星云”两大科幻奖尽收囊中,直到卡德横空出世。1986年,他的《安德的游戏》囊括雨果奖、星云奖,1987年,其续集《死者代言人》再次包揽了这两个世界科幻文学的最高奖项
卡德生于华盛顿州里奇兰,在犹他州长大,分别在杨百翰大学和犹他大学取得学位,目前定居于北卡罗莱纳州。卡德坚信小说具有教化意义,应该向读者传递积极上进的信息。“安德”系列小说便充分反映出作者的这种观念。这个系列还包括《安德的影子》《霸主的影子》等
Winer of the Hugo and Nebula Awards In order to develop a secure defense against a hostile alien race's next attack, government agencies breed child geniuses and train them as soldiers. A brilliant young boy, Andrew "Ender" Wiggin lives with his kind but distant parents, his sadistic brother Peter, and the person he loves more than anyone else, his sister Valentine. Peter and Valentine were candidates for the soldier-training program but didn't make the cut--young Ender is the Wiggin drafted to the orbiting Battle School for rigorous military training. Ender's skills make him a leader in school and respected in the Battle Room, where children play at mock battles in zero gravity. Yet growing up in an artificial community of young soldiers Ender suffers greatly from isolation, rivalry from his peers, pressure from the adult teachers, and an unsettling fear of the alien invaders. His psychological battles include loneliness, fear that he is becoming like the cruel brother he remembers, and fanning the flames of devotion to his beloved sister. Is Ender the general Earth needs? But Ender is not the only result of the genetic experiments. The war with the Buggers has been raging for a hundred years, and the quest for the perfect general has been underway for almost as long. Ender's two older siblings are every bit as unusual as he is, but in very different ways. Between the three of them lie the abilities to remake a world. If, that is, the world survives.
自从亚当夏娃因为毒蛇的谎言而偷吃了智慧果之后,人类很快就学会了撒谎,并且将谎言活学活用,开启了滔滔不绝的说谎历程。谎言几乎就是人类文明的一部分,甚至有时候它本身就是文明的象征:历史上,大部分的统治都是建立在一个弥天大谎的基础之上。 《安德的游戏》,也是...

评分我也喜欢刘慈欣的小说,尤其是《球状闪电》,因为两者都有政治特色。因为是美国作家,他会有冷战思维,而且美国人参政意识很强,所以洛克可以协同她的妹妹在这件事上大做文章,其实这也是科幻的一部分,过程很有创意。还有在训练营里那个要荣誉到极端暴力的西班牙人,被讽刺...
评分好像每个孩子儿时都有成为英雄啊救世主啊的梦想,我也不例外。这本小说恐怕就是最好的实现梦想的地方了。虽然情节是老套的人虫大战,但卡特把太空军事学院那段写的如此传神,不愧是星云奖作品。虽然卡特自己说想写的是《死者代言人》,但从后面来看,又出了《安德的影子》来说...
“If you could make them feel as you can make me feel, then perhaps they could forgive you.”
评分好像还好
评分外国科幻构建的线索总感觉勉勉强强........
评分最喜欢读的科幻小说之一,也是第一本完全读下来的英文原版小说
评分很赞。看的比较慢,还得继续培养阅读和理解能力。
