为什么值得读
- 包含以应用数论与数学真理为核心的精彩故事
- 比长篇小说更容易进入作者的硬科幻世界

Greg Egan 是该领域内一些最令人惊叹且极具直觉敏锐度的短篇科幻小说的作者。他的故事题材广泛，涵盖了从近未来预测到遥远未来与深空探索的即兴构想；这部收录了十篇故事的全新选集包含了《The Planck Dive》、《Transition Dreams》、《Our Lady of Chernobyl》、《Cocoon》以及同名主打篇目《Luminous》。

这里的“应用”数论让我想起了另外几个故事：- 洗衣房系列小说（Charlie Stross 的 Laundry 系列）。这里有一篇中篇：http://www.goldengryphon.com/Stross-Concrete.html - 《Luminous》/《Dark Integers》（Greg Egan）。
The "applied" number theory reminds me of a couple other stories: -the Laundry novels (Charlie Stross). Here's one novella: http://www.goldengryphon.com/Stross-Concrete.html -Luminous/Dark Integers (Greg Egan).
…结论。这是货真价实的硬科幻。如果你发现了类似的作者，请务必告诉我。推荐阅读：他的所有短篇小说都棒极了。我强烈推荐：http://www.amazon.com/Luminous-Greg-Egan-ebook/dp/B00E84BABW http://www.amazon.com/Axiomatic-Greg-Egan-ebook/dp/B00FDWOBZ... 他的长篇小说有些水平参差不齐，但绝对值得一看。这本大概是我的最爱：http://www.amazon.com/Permutation-City-Greg-Egan-ebook/dp/B0...

Reasons to be Cheerful is my favorite one as well as Egan's. It's part of the Luminous collection, available as a $3 kindle ebook: http://www.amazon.com/Luminous-Greg-Egan-ebook/dp/B00E84BABW...
…你早上醒来，对此一无所知。Edit：唯一吓人的部分是在 cutover 之后保持意识。Greg Egan 在《Axiomatic》（《The Jewel》）和《Luminous》（《Transition Dreams》）的优秀短篇里探讨过其中一些问题。不过这真没比吃 benzos 糟糕多少。
…You'll wake up in the morning, none the wiser. Edit: Only scary part is staying conscious after the cutover. Greg Egan gets into some of this with excellent short stories in Axiomatic (The Jewel) and Luminous (Transition Dreams). But that's still not really much worse than benzos.
