你可能会喜欢查尔斯·斯特罗斯 (Charles Stross) 的《恶梦书库》(The Nightmare Stacks) 里的精灵族 [0]。书里包括（轻微剧透）一支精灵诸兵种合成战斗群对英国利兹市的进攻（想象一下长着尖耳朵的武装党卫军）。他们拥有久经沙场检验的空地……

……真的不行。呃，更准确地说，是一本书加一个结尾彻底拉胯。《残暴档案》(Atrocity Archives) 和鲍勃系列的其他几本是我读过最有趣、观察最敏锐的喜剧小说了。《恶梦书库》(Nightmare Stacks) 虽然没太衔接上，但也算个痛快好看的故事，还加了几个有趣的新角色。然而《迷宫索引》(Labyrinth Index) 就支离破碎得让人根本读不下去（Charles 可是我最喜欢的作者之一，这还是他唯一一本……
…really didn't work. Well, more one book and one ending that failed hard. Atrocity Archives and the other Bob books were some of the most entertaining, delightfully observed comedy fiction I've read. Nightmare Stacks didn't really join up, but was a rollicking good tale, and some interesting new characters. Labyrinth Index on the other hand, was disjointed and unfinishable (The only book from Charles, one of my favourite…

哈，不得不承认，在被前面两三本伤到了之后，我就没再碰《恶梦书库》(The Nightmare Stacks)（其实我都不知道它已经出版了）。如果这本书重回水准（平心而论，斯特罗斯的水准一直挺不稳定的），那我回头去瞅瞅。
Hah, I must admit that after being disappointed with the previous two or three I didn't bother with The Nightmare Stacks (and hadn't in fact realised it was out yet). If it's a return to form (and to be fair Stross has always been pretty variable) them I'll check it out.

>对我来说，它把<很酷的科幻概念>写得读起来就像……乏味的政府官僚程序一样无聊。这也是查尔斯·斯特罗斯在《恶梦书库》(Nightmare Stacks) 里的毛病。这个点子在 2004 年那会儿还挺逗的，但到了第 10 本就纯纯让人厌烦了。读者忍不住大喊：搞这一切到底有啥意义啊？而斯特罗斯只是耸了耸肩。
>To me, it made <cool scifi thing> about as fun to read about as... tedious government bureaucracy. This is also the problem with Charles Stross' Nightmare Stacks. The concept was kinda funny in 2004, but by book number 10 it just gets tedious. The reader cries out, What is the point of all this, and Stross answers with a shrug.
