In the aftermath of his terrible war, Ender Wiggin disappeared, and a powerful voice arose: The Speaker for the Dead, who told the true story of the Bugger War.
Now, long years later, a second alien race has been discovered, but again the aliens' ways are strange and frightening...again, humans die. And it is only the Speaker for the Dead, who is also Ender Wiggin the Xenocide, who has the courage to confront the mystery...and the truth. "Speaker for the Dead" is the winner of the 1986 Nebula Award for Best Novel and the 1987 Hugo Award for Best Novel.

必須先看《安德的遊戲》再看此書,因為隻有兩相對比纔能顯齣此書的厚重。 初中時看《安德的遊戲》,做夢都想成為安德一樣的軍事天纔,帶領人類打敗蟲族!那是多麼激情澎湃的感覺!就像人的年少輕狂!《安德的遊戲》給年少的我留下瞭不可磨滅的英雄夢。 可惜後來忙於應試教育,...
評分這兩天剛看完深海尋人,不知怎的就想到幾年前看的這本科幻小說瞭. 兩者之間基本上毫無瓜葛,唯一的共同點就是都是虛構的. 可為什麼我會有一部帶點驚悚色彩的愛情片想到八杆子打不倒的死者代言人呢? 豬仔的生命曆程可謂奇特的不可思議的令"人"不可思議,是的,令人類這個種族.安德...
評分學習外語,遷徙到新的文化環境和瞭解認識陌生人都是一件糾結的事情。 你可以感覺到快樂, 也會深深發現交流的局限, 由於價值觀不同互相難以理解的無奈和效率低下。 其實不需要有蟲族和豬仔, 世界上異文化的衝突每時每刻都在上演。 如同書裏描述的一樣, 即使不同文化的生命已...

圖書標籤: 科幻 小說 英文原版 安德係列 OrsonScott Ender 美國 Sci-Fi
最喜歡的科幻作品之一,反復讀瞭不下五遍,真正的神作。
評分上接同名: … 如果有一天,人類的領域真正突破地球和地球引力,進入太陽係,我們就有機會講一些常數變為參數添加進意識,這當然會經曆適應的過程。 對比來說,對物理量的變化的適應已經非常容易,隻需要一些時間,總是可以的。 更難以察覺當然也更難以調整的常量,往往深入人心,比如道德,再深入,比如邏輯。這最後一環,邏輯,是橫梗在改變之路上最大的障礙。人類全部的存在與非存在,歸根結底都建構在人類邏輯之上,它如此基礎以至於仿佛地心引力那樣地不為人所察。 因此,人類必然會忽視一個問題,當人類的領域擴大到宇宙空間、當時間被超越而變成一個尋常細弱的維度、當其他智慧種族現身,這個問題將動搖一切的問題:人類邏輯是否適用。 下轉同名…
評分年初一病中重讀。宗教意味濃重,悲傷,美麗。安德是不摺不扣的聖人。
評分這本比第一本好看多瞭,正如作者自己所說,第一本隻是一個引子,但是作者自己也很無奈的是,大紅的正是第一本。科幻其實都是哲學。不過這部電影恐怕是等不來瞭。我隻好憤憤的去看瞭marvel的漫畫。
評分Orson Card這個人的文筆,簡直是證明瞭小學生也能寫名著
