……《已知空间》（Known Space）系列小说，但 1970 年之后发生在他身上的事情，比海因莱因那前后的遭遇还要糟糕。我觉得他和 Pournelle 合写的书，完全没法和《中子星》（Neutron Star）、《普塔夫的世界》（World of Ptavvs）等相提并论。他那篇精彩的灾难短篇《无常月》（Inconstant Moon）也是那个时期的作品。
…the Known Space books but something happened to him after 1970 that was worse than what happened to Heinlein around then. I don't think the books he wrote w/ Pournelle where anywhere near as good as Neutron Star, World of Ptavvs, etc. His great disaster short story Inconstant Moon dates from that period.
I still think Neutron Star is one of the best sci-fi books of all time as it is a short story collection that reads like a novel. I liked Ringworld when I was a kid but fell out of love with it slowly over decades, particularly…

我至今仍觉得《中子星》（Neutron Star）是史上最好的科幻书之一，因为这是一本读起来像长篇小说的短篇小说集。我小时候很喜欢《环形世界》（Ringworld），但几十年来慢慢就没那么爱了，尤其是……
