具体描述
Two months have past since a myriad of alien objects clenched about the Earth, screaming as they burned. The heavens have been silent since--until a derelict space probe hears whispers from a distant comet. Something talks out there: but not to us.
Who you do send to meet the alien
when the alien doesn't want to meet?
You send a linguist with multiple personalities carved surgically into her brain. You send
a biologist so radically interfaced with machinery that he sees x-rays and tastes ultra-
sound, so compromised by grafts and splices he no longer feels his own flesh. You
send a pacifist warrior whose career-defining moment was an act of treason. You
send a monster to command them all, an extinct hominid predator once called
vampire, recalled from the grave with the voodoo of recombinant genetics
and the blood of sociopaths. And you send a synthesist — an
informational topologist with half his mind gone — as an
interface between here and there, a conduit through
which the Dead Center might hope to understand
the Bleeding Edge.
You send them all to the edge of interstellar space, praying you
can trust such freaks and retrofits with the fate of a world.
You fear they may be more alien than the thing they've
been sent to find.
But you'd give anything for that to be true, if you
only knew what was waiting for them...

评分想象一下,在地球几光年之外,你碰到了比人类更高的智慧存在,在不得不进行的一番较量后,你发现了人类的致命弱点竟是一直被人类引以自喜和反复赞颂的———人类进化出的自我意识————你认为它赋予了我们自由意志,让你成为了万物之灵。 想象一下,当你做一个有意识的选择,比如下...
评分 评分《盲视》是一部好小说，作者设计了一个极端的环境，让各具特色的角色在这个舞台上互动，实际上是想通过他们来反应作者对自我和自我的意义的看法。 如果对文中描述的很多技术细节不去太深入的理解的话，小说其实不太硬。作者给每个角色和设置的概念是比较简单清晰的，他们或是代...

原版读起来巨费劲，但还是读完了。2010年之后读过的最好的科幻。
评分想象让stanislaw lem来写异形。
评分“满眼都是星星，不可胜数，我无论如何也无法理解，有这样多的星星，天空又怎能如此黑暗。星星，以及－－虚无。”
