……都是些比较轻度的都市奇幻小说。但有另一个小系列脱颖而出（未来可能会扩展成三部曲，但第 1 部和第 2 部都可以单独阅读）。阿卡迪·马丁的泰斯肯（Teixcalaan）系列第 1 部和第 2 部——《名为帝国的回忆》（A Memory Called Empire）与《名为和平的荒芜》（A Desolation Called Peace），它们是非常别具一格的科幻书，完全不是那种典型的西方中心主义套路。亮点在于语言，而且故事让人感觉既非常精巧克制，又……
…were rather light urban fantasy novels. But one other mini-series stood out (potentially going to be a trilogy, but both #1 & #2 can stand alone). Teixcalaan #1 & #2, "A Memory Called Empire" and "A Desolation Called Peace" by Arkady Martine for being very different feeling sci-fi books that are not your typical western-centric fare. Highlights are the language, and that the story feels both very small and contained, and…
……乍看之下所暗示的那样。有一些很棒的硬科幻（hard SF），但本质上都比较“平实/写实”（mundane，没有超光速 FTL 引擎之类的玩意）。我非常喜欢阿卡迪·马丁的第一本书——《名为帝国的回忆》（Teixcalaan #1），也很喜欢《名为和平的荒芜》（Teixcalaan #2）。这些书在本质上更偏推想性，设定在遥远的未来，不过作者作为历史学家的背景确实为她构建的世界赋予了真正的深度。
…suggest at a glance. There is some good hard SF but it is 'mundane' in nature (no FTL drives, etc). I really loved Arkady Martine's first book - A Memory Called Empire - (Teixcalaan #1) and liked A Desolation Called Peace (Teixcalaan #2). These are much more speculative and far-future in nature, although the author's background as a historian gives real depth to the world she builds.

……死透了。确实，奇幻作品“腐蚀”了雨果奖（Hugos），但依然有大量硬核科幻，以及直面宏大社会议题的科幻作品。阿卡迪·马丁的《名为帝国的回忆》和《名为和平的荒芜》双双斩获雨果奖，极其深刻地描绘了处于新技术颠覆边缘的社会。青木良香的《Light From Uncommon Stars》入围了 2022 年雨果奖，虽然有点科幻奇幻杂糅……
…dead. Sure, fantasy has "corrupted" the Hugos, but there's plenty of hard science fiction, and science fiction that grapples with societal questions at large. Arkady Martine's Memory Called Empire and Desolation Called Peace, both Hugo winners, are incredibly thoughtful depictions of societies on the verge of disruption from new technology. Ryka Aoki's Light From Uncommon Stars, a 2022 Hugo nominee, while somewhat of a sci-fi-fantasy…
我正在读阿卡迪·马丁的《名为和平的荒芜》，这是《名为帝国的回忆》的续集。读得很过瘾！
