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
Boxed Set contains Mass Market Editions of Ender's Game, Ender's Shadow, and Shadow of the Hegemon
Ender's Game
Winner 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.
Ender's Shadow
Orson Scott Card brings us back to the very beginning of his brilliant Ender Quartet, with a novel that allows us to reenter that world anew.
With all the power of his original creation, Card has created a parallel volume to Ender's Game, a book that expands and compliments the first, enhancing its power, illuminating its events and its powerful conclusion.
The human race is at War with the "Buggers", an insect-like alien race. The first battles went badly, and now as Earth prepares to defend itself against the imminent threat of total destruction at the hands of an inscrutable alien enemy, all focus is on the development and training of military geniuses who can fight such a war, and win.
The long distances of interstellar space have given hope to the defenders of Earth--they have time to train these future commanders up from childhood, forging then into an irresisible force in the high orbital facility called the Battle School.
Andrew "Ender" Wiggin was not the only child in the Battle School; he was just the best of the best. In this new book, card tells the story of another of those precocious generals, the one they called Bean--the one who became Ender's right hand, part of his team, in the final battle against the Buggers.
Bean's past was a battle just to survive. He first appeared on the streets of Rotterdam, a tiny child with a mind leagues beyond anyone else's. He knew he could not survive through strength; he used his tactical genius to gain acceptance into a children's gang, and then to help make that gang a template for success for all the others. He civilized them, and lived to grow older.
Bean's desperate struggle to live, and his success, brought him to the attention of the Battle School's recruiters, those people scouring the planet for leaders, tacticians, and generals to save Earth from the threat of alien invasion. Bean was sent into orbit, to the Battle School. And there he met Ender....
Shadow of the Hegemon
The War is over, won by Ender Wiggin and his team of brilliant child-warriors. The enemy is destroyed, the human race is saved. Ender himself refuses to return to the planet, but his crew has gone home to their families, scattered across the globe. The battle school is no more.
But with the external threat gone, the Earth has become a battlefield once more. The children of the Battle School are more than heros; they are potential weapons that can bring power to the countries that control them. One by one, all of Ender's Dragon Army are kidnapped. Only Bean escapes; and he turns for help to Ender's brother Peter.
Peter Wiggin, Ender's older brother, has already been manipulating the politics of Earth from behind the scenes. With Bean's help, he will eventually rule the world.
每个人都有自己yy的方向,而安德这个孩子,恰好和我的很接近。 按照上帝的意愿-应该每个人都是得上帝宠爱的,都是上帝的子民。存在即合理这种说法是积极的人生必备良药。我一直都指望不被重视和重视得到一个很好的平衡,可是,事实是,一旦重视,就一定会趋向于过度。 不被重...
评分《安德的游戏》看得让人心痛,不过是一个小孩,却被安排担负起所谓的人类兴亡使命,而事实上,那场战争,更多是出于假想。在结尾,安德在虫族星球上,与虫族女王的意识对话,让我想起了《三体》中的黑暗森林法则。文明之间,是对抗还是和谐共存?前者是现实,后者是理想。 ...
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《 安德的游戏》这本书,在我第一眼看到封面的时候,我直觉是一本成人的专业书,而且是很不容易懂的那种。我对这种书一般是敬而远之的,因为自己水平有限,买了也看不懂,就不浪费作者的心血我的钱财了。后来,在豆瓣上看到书评,几乎可以用好评如潮来形容。从书评内容来看...
评分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...
