Three terrible things happen in a single day. Essun, a woman living an ordinary life in a small town, comes home to find that her husband has brutally murdered their son and kidnapped their daughter. Meanwhile, mighty Sanze -- the world-spanning empire whose innovations have been civilization's bedrock for a thousand years -- collapses as most of its citizens are murdered to serve a madman's vengeance. And worst of all, across the heart of the vast continent known as the Stillness, a great red rift has been torn into the heart of the earth, spewing ash enough to darken the sky for years. Or centuries.
Now Essun must pursue the wreckage of her family through a deadly, dying land. Without sunlight, clean water, or arable land, and with limited stockpiles of supplies, there will be war all across the Stillness: a battle royale of nations not for power or territory, but simply for the basic resources necessary to get through the long dark night. Essun does not care if the world falls apart around her. She'll break it herself, if she must, to save her daughter.

看完瞭《第五季》這本書。同是雨果奬的獲奬作品,《三體》和《北京摺疊》會更符閤我的閱讀喜好,可能有翻譯的原因吧。這本書架構很大,但是好像設定比較混亂,思想的內核大概是原基人對自由自尊和被認同的追求?伊鬆,達瑪亞,茜奈特原來是同一個人,成長的過程很麯摺,但是似...
評分 評分這個標題完全和劇情對不上.. 每次閱讀的時候,我總會在大腦中構建齣作者想要描述的世界.冰與火中陰冷的中世紀,新日之書的末世.讀這本書的時候總是感覺非常古怪,沒有一個閤適的氣氛和環境帶入.直到發現作者是黑人.於是,故事發生的場景,套到埃及,草原,感覺一下子就通順瞭. 本書和...
評分 評分‘Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall; Death is the fifth, and master of all. -Arctic Proverb’ This is a book that really sets itself apart from the majority of fantasy books and really gives the genre a series that is hugely original with wide appeal for read...

评分守護者的boss是誰?
评分好幾年沒正兒八經地讀科幻瞭,有驚喜,就是文筆差瞭些。
评分看看科學傢推薦的幻想小說,用第二人稱寫的小說,開頭真有點兒彆扭。故事還是比較單薄,人物不多,就靠想象力支撐。
评分故事老套,文筆一般
