倾听吧。神明正在说话。我的声音在你主人的城堡石壁间回荡。在那座城堡里，他发现自己的叔父僭据了父亲的王位。你想帮助他。但你做不到。你是唯一能听到我声音的人。你将改变世界。作为想象力的巅峰之作，The Raven Tower是New York Times畅销书作家、Hugo、Nebula及Arthur C. Clarke Awards得主Ann Leckie的首部奇幻小说。在这部扣人心弦的奇幻杰作中，众神插手凡人的命运，凡人玩弄神明的宿命，而僭主必须被赶下王座。

强烈附议推荐 Ann Leckie（她的新书《The Raven Tower》也是一本让人欲罢不能的精彩之作）和 N.K. Jemisin（她的《Broken Earth》三部曲简直彻底震撼了我）。Ursula K. Le Guin 在下面也有被提到；《The Left Hand of Darkness》是一本意蕴深远的作品。
Can second both Ann Leckie (her new book "The Raven Tower" is also a great page-turner) and N.K. Jemisin (who did totally blow my mind with her Broken Earth Trilogy). Ursula K. Le Guin also appears down below; The Left Hand of Darkness was a profound read.
……Justice，尽管我觉得我不该这样——肯定是因为长线铺垫的回报很足。当然，你也可以通过 Leckie 的另一本书《The Raven Tower》读到一些相同的主题，而且阅读门槛更低（还没有任何飞船，不管是具有自我意识的还是普通的）。
…Justice even though I don’t think I should - must be the long payoff. Of course, you can get some of the same themes in an easier (and no spaceships, sentient or otherwise) read with Leckie’s other book The Raven Tower.
我由衷推荐 Leckie 写的任何作品。她的科幻写得极棒。而她在奇幻上的尝试（《The Raven Tower》）也同样出类拔萃。
I can warmly recommend anything written by Leckie. Her scifi is great. But her attempt at fantasy (The Raven Tower) is also most excellent.
Ann Leckie 的奇幻小说《The Raven Tower》设定在一个这种异教神明真实存在的世界，并深入描写了人类部落如何耗费数代人的时间去规训这些神祇，好让它们给出有利的回应。
Ann Leckie's fantasy novel The Raven Tower is set in a world where such pagan gods are real, and dives right into a description of how human tribes will spend generations training them to respond favorably.
……而不是剧情。一旦沉浸进书里，我其实不太能察觉出第一人称和第三人称视角的太大区别，尽管刚开始读的时候感受更明显。第二人称则更让人出戏不适——我最近读了《The Raven Tower》和《Harrow The Ninth》，两本全篇或大部分都是第二人称。你关于 RPG 的观点很有意思——开放世界对我来说非常上瘾（我玩了《Skyrim》很多很多年——而且……
…than plot. I don't really notice much difference in first and third person perspectives once into a book, although it's more noticeable when starting out. Second person is more jarring - I've read The Raven Tower and Harrow The Ninth recently, both being all or largely in second person. Interesting point you make with regards to RPGs - open worlds are addictive to me (I played Skyrim for many, many years - and…
《From Dust》（2011）听起来就像是这其中某些设想的极简版。《The Raven Tower》是一部情节非常相似的小说，其中包括神明之间的战争，他们是通过意志力而非直接冲突来进行较量。《Receiver 2》则包含多重现实概念的元素（在某种程度上……
From Dust (2011) sounds like a very lite version of some of these ideas. The Raven Tower is a novel with a very similar plot including a war between gods who work through willpower rather than direct conflict. Receiver 2 has elements of the multiple layers of reality idea (and to a lesser…
