为什么值得读

  • 巧妙融合了历史谜团、科技元素与幽默感
  • 主角用编程探索谜案的情节极具启发感染力
  • 节奏引人入胜,是非常轻松愉悦的阅读体验

The Great Recession 让 Clay Jannon 告别了在旧金山担任 web-design 打工人的生活,走进了 Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore 的过道书架间;但工作几天后,Clay 发现这家书店比它的名字或者神秘古怪的老板所暗示的更为离奇。顾客寥寥无几,而且他们似乎从不购买任何东西,而是从书店古怪的角落里“借阅”大本晦涩难懂的书籍。起疑的 Clay 对顾客行为设计了一套分析方案,向身怀绝技的朋友们寻求帮助,但当他们把发现告诉 Mr. Penumbra

Hacker News 上怎么说

  • 我来推荐一本本来只是随手翻翻、结果成了我最喜欢的书之一的小说:Robin Sloan 写的《Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore》。里面带点科技元素,因为主角开始用编程来调查一个谜团,那部分内容看着绝对让人充满干劲。我们手头都有一堆……

    I'll give a casual read that became one of my favorite books: Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan It's got some tech aspects to it since the main character is starting to get into using programming to investigate a mystery and that bit definitely feels motivating. We all have a bunch…

  • ……纯粹为了抛梗而抛梗并不见得有多高明。但如果你喜欢那种笑点、喜欢那部剧,也挺好的。我绝不会因此对你这个人指指点点。甚至,如果你还没读过的话,我很乐意向你推荐《Mr. Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore》。

    …references for their own sake is particularly clever. But if you like that kind of joke and you like the show, that's great. It's not something I would judge you as a person for. Heck, I'd be happy to suggest Mr. Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore, if you haven't read it already.

  • Dave Eggers 写的《The Circle》(圆环)。险胜 Robin Sloan 的《Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore》。我混科技圈很久了。我是 90 年代初入行的,那时候互联网还是个用来协作、结识新朋友以及打倒邪恶混蛋的工具。但自从……出现以来

    "The Circle", by Dave Eggers. Narrowly edging "Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore" by Robin Sloan. I've been in tech a long time. I came up in the early 90's when the Internet was a tool for collaboration, meeting new people, and taking down the evil bastards. But since the advent…

  • 《Mr Penumbra's 24 hour bookstore》- Robin Sloan(历史、悬疑、幽默与科技的绝妙融合);《The Cuckoo's Egg》- Clifford Stoll(确实如大家一直说的那样精彩 ;-) );《Winnie the Pooh》- A.A. Milne(令人愉悦,……

    "Mr Penumbra's 24 hour bookstore" - Robin Sloan (a brilliant mix of history, mystery, humour and technology) "The Cuckoo's Egg" - Clifford Stoll (it really is as good as they always say ;-) ) "Winnie the Pooh" - A.A. Milne (delightful,…

  • 感觉这里的讨论大多集中在各自这方面的亲身经历上,但我能不能单纯推荐大家关注 Robin Sloan 这个人本身?他的两本长篇小说《Mr. Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore》和《Sourdough》读起来都非常引人入胜。他的第三部小说正在写,看样子质量也会一如既往地高。他还有几部中篇小说和一堆棒极了的短篇……

    Seems like most of the discussion here is focused on everyone's own experience with this, but can I just recommend Robin Sloan as a human in general for folks to follow in their lives? His 2 novels, "Mr. Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore" and "Sourdough", are both really engaging reads. His 3rd novel is in progress and it seems like it's going to be more of the same quality. He also has a couple of novellas and a bunch of great short…

  • 只挑一本书?Robin Sloan 的《Mr. Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore》。只挑一个系列?Isaac Asimov 的《基地》(Foundation)系列。其他个人心头好还包括:Paulo Coelho 的《牧羊少年奇幻之旅》、Fernando Pessoa 的《惶然录》、大仲马的《基督山伯爵》……

    Any one book? Mr. Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore, Robin Sloan Any one series? The Foundation series, Isaac Asimov Other personal favourites include: The Alchemist, Paulo Coelho The Book of Disquet, Fernando Pessoa The Count of Monte Cristo, Alexander…
