为什么值得读
- 构想了极具深度的遥远未来外星接触事件
- 太空战描写极具特色,平淡与惊险交替展开
- 两位科幻名家强强联手打造的代表作
一部科幻经典之作,讲述了一个文明的兴盛、衰落以及随后的再度崛起,其中最顶峰的灾难被称为“crazy eddy point”。书中引入了无水且无摩擦的马桶概念,但我怀疑作者并没有彻底推演成熟——我不记得书中有任何负气压设计能将气味锁在原本该在的地方。尽管如此,这依然是一本引人入胜的读物。我已经有许多年没读过它了,这正是我四处寻找电子版的原因。

我真以为这里会有什么内容跟《上帝眼中的微尘》(The Mote in God's Eye)[0] 有关呢,那是 Niven 和 Pournelle 写的相当不错的一本书,讲遥远未来的外星接触。结果我完全猜错了,但我还是顺手贴个链接吧,纯粹因为撞名了。0 - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mote_in_God's_Eye#Crazy_...
I sincerely thought there might be something here related to The Mote in God's Eye [0], a pretty good book by Niven and Pournelle about far off future alien contact. I was dead wrong, but I'll still take the time to link it for the heck of the coincident names. 0 - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mote_in_God's_Eye#Crazy_...
我也很喜欢 Niven 和 Pournelle 在《上帝眼中的微尘》里的描写——换句话说就是:太空战斗除了短暂的极度恐惧时刻之外,其实无聊得要死。
I also enjoyed Niven/Pournelle's descriptions in Mote in God's Eye - to paraphrase, space combat is incredibly boring except for brief flashes of terror.
我来回敬一份书单:1) 《Dune》- Frank Herbert 2) 《The Mote in God's Eye》- Niven & Pournelle 3) 《Lord of Light》- Roger Zelazny 4) 《Xeelee》系列 - Stephen Baxter(或者《Manifold》系列) 5) 《Well World》传奇 - Jack L. Chalker(认准前五本就行)
I'll counter with: 1) Dune - Frank Herbert 2) Mote in God's Eye - Niven & Pournelle 3) The Lord of Light - Roger Zelanzy 4) Xeelee Series - Stephen Baxter (Or the Manifold: books) 5) The Well World Saga - Jack L. Chalker (Stick with the first 5 books)
《上帝眼中的微尘》(The Mote in God's Eye)是他与拉里·尼文(Larry Niven)众多合著作品之一,非常精彩。《效忠誓约》(Oath of Fealty)是另一部佳作,应该很合 Hacker News 读者的胃口。
"a mote in god's eye", one of his many collaborations with larry niven, is excellent. "oath of fealty" is another good one that should appeal to the hackernews crowd.
同意。他和尼文的合著作品太棒了。两人单拎出来都是极优秀的作家,但合体之后简直绝了。《魔鬼之锤》(Footfall)、《上帝眼中的微尘》(The Mote in God's Eye)和《路西法的锤子》(Lucifer's Hammer)至今仍是我最喜欢的几本科幻读物。
Agreed. His collaborations with Niven were great. Both were great authors alone, but as a team they were really something special. Footfall, A Mote in God's Eye, and Lucifer's Hammer are a few of my favorite sci-fi reads to this day.
Niven 和 Pournelle 在《上帝眼中的微尘》里预言了“不可维修性”——Renner [说]:“我想起个事。带袖珍计算机了吗?”“当然带了。”她掏出来给他看。“请帮我测一下。”Sally 脸上一脸困惑,抽出了……
Niven and Pournelle predicted unrepairability in The Mote in God's Eye - Renner [said] "I remembered something. Have you got your pocket computer?" "Certainly." She took it out to show him. "Please test it for me." Her face a puzzled mask, Sally drew…
