Product Description
From George R. R. Martin’s Introduction to Warriors:
“People have been telling stories about warriors for as long as they have been telling stories. Since Homer first sang the wrath of Achilles and the ancient Sumerians set down their tales of Gilgamesh, warriors, soldiers, and fighters have fascinated us; they are a part of every culture, every literary tradition, every genre. All Quiet on the Western Front, From Here to Eternity, and The Red Badge of Courage have become part of our literary canon, taught in classrooms all around the country and the world. Our contributors make up an all-star lineup of award-winning and bestselling writers, representing a dozen different publishers and as many genres. We asked each of them for the same thing—a story about a warrior. Some chose to write in the genre they’re best known for. Some decided to try something different. You will find warriors of every shape, size, and color in these pages, warriors from every epoch of human history, from yesterday and today and tomorrow, and from worlds that never were. Some of the stories will make you sad, some will make you laugh, and many will keep you on the edge of your seat.”
Included are a long novella from the world of Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin, a new tale of Lord John by Diana Gabaldon, and an epic of humanity at bay by David Weber. Also present are original tales by David Ball, Peter S. Beagle, Lawrence Block, Gardner Dozois, Joe Haldeman, Robin Hobb, Cecelia Holland, Joe R. Lansdale, David Morrell, Naomi Novik, James Rollins, Steven Saylor, Robert Silverberg, S.M. Stirling, Carrie Vaughn, Howard Waldrop, and Tad Williams.
Many of these writers are bestsellers. All of them are storytellers of the highest quality. Together they make a volume of unforgettable reading.

The title of this massive anthology implies a binding military-sf theme, but actually the book is an essay in providing lots of different genres between one set of covers. Happily, it’s entirely successful. There really is something for everybody in it. Joe R. Lansdale has a straight history-cum-mystery about the Buffalo Soldiers, among other things. Naomi Novik eschews dragons in favor of bioengineering on a distant planet—too distant for the characters’ comfort. Steven Saylor goes back before Gordianus the Finder’s era to the fall of Carthage, regarded from the Carthaginian perspective. Lawrence Block forsakes Matthew Scudder to present a very odd young lady of easy virtue. Likewise, Carrie Vaughan’s character herein isn’t really a werewolf but a member of the WWII WASP. Both S. M. Stirling and David Weber hew closer to standard military-sf than many others; both are complete masters of it, of course, who have ever so slightly pushed its limits. And both editors contribute, Dozois a classy last-survivor piece, and Martin a sidebar to his Ice and Fire saga. --Roland Green

评分我当然知道马丁说的那种在一大堆乱七八糟的阅读中偶然发现一篇特别对自己胃口的作品时会体味到的喜悦。 任何一个人都拥有就是不喜欢一部真正的杰作的权利。我明白这个道理有点儿太晚。所以在好长的一段时间里感到心虚。 这话反过来当然适用。我自己的好恶,难道不能自己做主? ...
评分 评分这部短篇集是关于战士这个主题的,不过作者很多,内容和题材五花八门,个人认为质量也高下不一,最精彩的是下半本的最后两篇,戴南娜的《军中惯例》和马丁大师的《神秘骑士》,这两篇是货真价实的大师之作,其他的嘛,我就只能说各有千秋了。 不过总体来说,这些作品都充分描...
评分战士,形容得很贴切,每篇故事中的主人公都是他们自己人生的战士,自我抗争,自我救赎,或只是一种自我坚持,都散发着人性的光环,照亮了昏噩的我,那个曾经为了梦想而战斗的人,我要找回来。 战士,形容得很贴切,每篇故事中的主人公都是他们自己人生的战士,自我抗争,自我救...
