It's not new, but I just read Neverness by David Zindell. I had a similar feeling with his invented language. He actually does it so realistically that sometimes I couldn't tell when the words were invented and when they were just archaic.
Thanks to this link I just bought a lot of books. I'd note: Greg Egan is pretty well (if not completely) represented, but how is Permutation City not on the list?! Also: Neverness by David Zindell is extremely good. Almost certainly the best SF work of its decade. Very underrated.
One of the read-worthy books which immediately came to mind is Neverness [1] by David Zindell. It is actually the 'prequel' to a series ('A requiem for Homo Sapiens' [2]) which I have yet to read, but it stands by itself as far as I'm concerned. If you like SF, mathematics…
That's definitely retroactive, my old copy says no such thing. Neverness is a fabulous book though. RfHS also worthwhile, but does sprawl a bit for my taste.
Happy to see you mention the latter. I read Neverness as a teenager, and have re-read the book several times over the years. It influenced the way I see the world, and many of the ideas and phrases have become part of my own life narrative. I definitely…
More recently, Permutation City by Greg Egan and Neverness by David Zindell are all about mathematical journeys in fictional worlds. It's hard to discuss what they mean without getting pretty deep into the philosophical implications of simulated worlds, though,…
虽然不是新书，但我刚读了戴维·辛德尔（David Zindell）的《永恒之城》（Neverness）。我对他在书里自创的语言也有类似的感觉。他写得实在太逼真了，有时我都分不清哪些词是他发明的，哪些只是古英语词汇。

多亏了这个链接，我刚买了一大堆书。我想说的是：格雷格·伊根（Greg Egan）的作品收录得挺全（即便不算完全收录），但《排列城市》（Permutation City）怎么会不在清单上？！另外：戴维·辛德尔的《永恒之城》极其出色。几乎可以肯定是那十年里最优秀的科幻作品。严重被低估了。

我脑海中立刻浮现出的一本值得一读的书是戴维·辛德尔的《永恒之城》[1]。它其实是一个系列（《智人安魂曲》[2]，我还没读过）的“前传”，但在我看来它可以作为独立作品来读。如果你喜欢科幻、数学……

那肯定是后来加的，我那本旧版可没这么说。《Neverness》是本很棒的书。RfHS 也值得一读，但对我来说有点散。

很高兴看到你提到后者。我十几岁时读了《Neverness》，这些年来又重读了好几遍。它影响了我看世界的方式，许多想法和语句已经成为我个人生活叙事的一部分。我肯定……

近一些的，格雷格·伊根的《排列城市》和戴维·辛德尔的《永恒之城》讲的都是虚构世界里的数学探索之旅。不过，如果不深入探讨模拟世界的哲学意味，很难讲清它们到底表达了什么……
