ZOE’S TALE

Book ID/图书代码: 12775008B30211

English Summary/英文概要:

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 你在歷史的長河中如何尋找你的定位?
我之所以這樣問,因為那正是我所做的。我叫柔伊,是一個滯留在先鋒世界的殖民者、是一個格格不入的異類。就像在一場巨大的國際象棋比賽中,我有時是選手、有時是一顆棋子,要麼拯救人類,抑或看著它滅亡。我也是一個目擊者見證著歷史、朋友、女兒、人類。
我今年17歲。
每個人都知道我處於故事的哪一部分,但你們不知道我自己的故事:那些關於我所做的和將要做的一切,不僅是為了自己,也是為了你們能夠生存下去。而現在,我將要告訴你們這一切,也許這不是一個好方法,但它千真萬確,這是唯一能使你們與我感同身受的方法,你們將與我一起體驗快樂、恐懼、易變;體驗恐慌與猜疑;體驗絕望與希望。通過我的眼睛,看到我們所處的星球發生的一切。(RH & SK)

各界推薦:
儘管許多科幻作家多少承襲了羅伯特‧海萊因的傳統,史卡奇熟練得驚人的首本創作卻讀來有如近代大師的原創作品。──《出版人週刊》
約翰‧史卡奇是位嶄新而充滿魅力的面孔,而《垂暮戰爭》是以當代觀點詮釋的科幻經典──是一個令人怯步、危機四伏宇宙裡的快節奏旅程。──羅伯特‧查爾斯‧威爾森(Robert Charles Wilson,加拿大作家,《時間迴旋》作者)
引人入勝、卓越地原創。那是沒有訓戒過程的《星艦戰將》(Startship Troopers),以及性感場景更佳的《永世之戰》(The Forever War)。
“If Stephen King were to try his hand at science fiction, he’d be lucky to be half as entertaining as John Scalzi.”---Dallas Morning News on The Ghost Brigades
"The sequel to Old Man’s War combines taut military action with keen insights into the moral issues revolving around developing technologies. Scalzi has a finely tuned sense of balance between personal drama and the ’big picture’ ... Highly recommended."---Library Journal (starred review) on The Ghost Brigades
"A mix of Starship Troopers and Universal Soldier, Ghost evokes awakening, betrayal, and combat in the best military sci-fi tradition."---Entertainment Weekly on The Ghost Brigades
“An impressive piece of work." ---Philadelphia Inquirer on The Ghost Brigades
"Fast and deep…I like the galaxy this author’s playing in, the characters he limns, the situations he’s playing with, and I’m glad there’s at least one more volume on the way."---San Diego Union-Tribune on The Ghost Brigades
"In Heinleinesque fashion, the book is loaded with scenes of comradeship, isolation, ruthlessness and the protocols, which govern the lives of active-duty soldiers. But this is where Scalzi, famous for his blog ‘The Whatever,’ surpasses Heinlein. Scalzi weaves in subtle discussions of humanity’s growing fear of aging and our simultaneous attraction and repulsion to the Frankensteinlike creatures we are able to create."---San Antonio Express-News on The Ghost Brigades
"Scalzi is a natural heir to Heinlein, and his second book in this series is a good old-fashioned space opera, which takes time to question the nature of free will."---St. Louis Press-Dispatch on The Ghost Brigades
