Back in print after a decade, expanded with new original material, this is the first volume of George R. R. Martin's Wild cards shared-world series
There is a secret history of the world--a history in which an alien virus struck the Earth in the aftermath of World War II, endowing a handful of survivors with extraordinary powers. Some were called Aces--those with superhuman mental and physical abilities. Others were termed Jokers--cursed with bizarre mental or physical disabilities. Some turned their talents to the service of humanity. Others used their powers for evil. Wild Cards is their story.
Originally published in 1987, "Wild Cards I "includes powerful tales by Roger Zelazny, Walter Jon Williams, Howard Waldrop, Lewis Shiner, and George R. R. Martin himself. And this new, expanded edition contains further original tales set at the beginning of the Wild Cards universe, by eminent new writers like Hugo-winner David Levine, noted screenwriter and novelist Michael Cassutt, and "New York Times "bestseller Carrie Vaughn.

評分故事有一個有趣的背景設定,且用許多小故事共同串成一個大事件。但是某些小故事本身並不吸引,起碼我不習慣這樣的小短篇。其中印象最深刻的是將麥卡锡主義肆虐同Wild cards病毒結閤起來那幾篇故事中流露的壓抑和絕望。第一部就橫跨瞭近40年。看看第二部能不能吸引我,希望能從其中看到更多核心角色互動,如果不能可以棄坑瞭。
評分筆法超贊,整部書都可用來作為小說撰寫的標準教材,第一部分的筆法和world war Z類似,多視角多角度描述事件,但完爆world war z,筆力不是一個等級的
