It begins with absence and desire. It begins with blood and fear. It begins with a discovery of witches. When historian Diana Bishop opens an alchemical manuscript in the Bodleian Library, it's an unwelcome intrusion of magic into her carefully ordered life. Though Diana is a witch of impeccable lineage, the violent death of her parents while she was still a child convinced her that human fear is more potent than any witchcraft. Now Diana has unwittingly exposed herself to a world she's kept at bay for years; one of powerful witches, creative, destructive daemons and long-lived vampires. Sensing the significance of Diana's discovery, the creatures gather in Oxford, among them the enigmatic Matthew Clairmont, a vampire genticist. Diana is inexplicably drawn to Matthew and, in a shadowy world of half-truths and old enmities, ties herself to him without fully understanding the ancient line they are crossing. As they begin to unlock the secrets of the manuscript and their feelings for each other deepen, so the fragile balance of peace unravels...

读后感

????魔法强大，让我又开始读原版系列了，上次一套还是哈利波特，纳尼亚那套有点浅搁置了，之后要把魔戒三部曲读完，谁让作者是语言学家呢！哦哟跑偏了……这套作者是南加州大学历史教授写的，最近英剧开播，也是让我来读原著的动力！当然，小说是第一人称叙述，英剧编剧肯定不...

三周读完了Trilogy，不看暮光的人居然跑来看这部Trilogy，得益于最近看不进正经书和男女主的设定。看起来很颠覆以往的吸血鬼/巫师的书和剧。吸血鬼有那么长的生命用来干什么好呢？答案是学习啊！Matthew在牛津就在各大学院当过N次fellow，现在是All souls的fellow，在4个各领域...

用户评价

研究supernatural的历史学家写的女巫小说。爱情线像Twilight, 女主父母双亡就像Harry Potter，中间历史与解迷像达芬奇密码，女巫与吸血鬼的DNA和生命进化结合在一起还是蛮有趣的，最后穿越伊丽莎白一世年代联想到Doctor Who，也许每个历史学家都有穿越的梦想。但是阅读过程当中觉得描述性的文字比较累赘，还加入了大量古代方言，拉丁文之类的，这些都影响阅读进度。

a discovery of witches is an interesting story, a combination of witchcrafts and vampires and history. But it’s poorly told in the book, the writing is too plain. However, the TV series is beautifully done.

故事是旧的，炼金术以及历史元素是新的。看最后的致谢，作者应该是第一次写小说，这也就解释了为何节奏如此拖沓以及视觉转换为何如此生硬。但是，代入Mathew Goode看，什么都好。

脑袋里全程浮现古迪老师的帅气小脸才得以坚持看完，为了古迪老师～～
