NEVERWAS

Book ID/图书代码: 06840014B67996

English Summary/英文概要: At the end of Amber House (Arthur Levine Books, 2012), Sarah made a choice that transformed everything--and now she must choose it all again.

"I was sixteen the second time I had my first kiss...."

After growing up in the free country of the Pacific Northwest, Sarah Parsons has settled in at Amber House, the stately Maryland home that’s been in her family for generations. But the world surrounding the House feels deeply wrong to Sarah. It’s a place where the colonists lost the 1776 Insurrection, where the American Confederation of States still struggles with segregation, and where Sarah is haunted by echoes of a better world that she knows never existed.

Her friend Jackson shares these visions of a different world--and together, they manage both to remember the way things ought to be, and to plan a daring mission that will reset the universe once again. It will involve objects from the past, knowledge of the future, a leap into the unknown ... and in the end, a sacrifice Sarah never imagined.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 在《琥珀之屋》(Arthur Levine Books, 2012)的最后,莎拉做出了一个将会改变一切的决定---因此如今她将全部重新选择。

“16岁那年,我第二次有了自己的初吻。。。。。。”

莎拉•帕森斯在太平洋西北地区的一个自由国度中长大,随后她来到了琥珀之屋--她们家族在马里兰数代以来的豪华宅邸中定居了下来。然而对莎拉而言,这座屋舍周围的一切都不太对劲。在这里,殖民主义者曾在1776年的起义中失势,美国联邦政府在这里与种族隔离主义顽强斗争,而莎拉本人更是听到有关于一个更好的世界的回应在耳边回荡,尽管她知道那是一个根本不存在的世界。

她的朋友杰克森也和莎拉一样看到了这个有关于另个世界的影像---于是两人一起努力回想,并计划了一项大胆的任务,让整个宇宙重生。这项任务将会涉及到一些来自过去的东西,未来的知识,甚至会一跃进入某个未知的时空。。。。。。而最终,将会出现一场莎拉远远没有想到的牺牲。(DC)

Awards/获奖情况:“在这部续篇中,《琥珀之屋》(2012)中的那种可怕而令人战栗的气氛更是继续升级为了一种极致的恐怖,尤其是当故事的女主人公发现自己身处于一个纳粹与种族主义横行的世界中时。。。。。。而作者本人对于这样一种多选择的,破碎的美国的全景也愈加集中。。。。。。诚然,鬼魂是很可怕的,但对于一个大屠杀持续了75年之久并很有可能还将继续下去的世界而言呢?怕是鬼魂也显得无足轻重了。那种可怕将是无法想象的。。。。。。这场狂野的可怕之旅将一定会令读者们紧张不已。” --科克斯书评

“《一无所获》是一本引人入胜的精彩之作,充满了活力与错综复杂的情节---而其整个假设构想也被演绎的淋漓尽致。” --Examiner.com

“In this sequel to Amber House (2012), the creepy atmosphere of its predecessor segues into full-blown terror when its heroine finds herself in a world where Nazis and racism prevail...The authors’ vision of this alternate, broken United States slowly comes into focus...Sure, ghosts are scary, but a world where the Holocaust lasted for 75 years and may continue? That’s inconceivably frightening...A wild ride that leaves its readers breathless.” --Kirkus

“Neverwas is a captivating read, full of action and intrigue—and a fascinating premise expertly executed.” --Examiner.com

About the Author/作者介绍: 凯莉•摩尔多年前便曾构思并创作了《琥珀之屋》的开章,但直到多年后女儿塔克•里德和拉金•里德发现了这部作品的原稿并说服母亲与她们共同完成,这才使得这部小说成为了一部完整成熟的作品。塔克目前就读于洛杉矶南加利福尼亚大学,而拉金则是马里兰圣约翰学院的一名大一新生。母女三人目前居住在俄勒冈州杰克森威尔。

Kelly Moore wrote the beginnings of what would become AMBER HOUSE years ago, but it wasn’t until her daughters Tucker and Larkin Reed found the manuscript and convinced her to work on it with them that it became a full-fledged book. Tucker attends the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, while Larkin is a freshman at St. John’s College in Maryland. All three reside in historic Jacksonville, Oregon.
