科幻——KS 牧师 Alexander Hergensheimer 在波利尼西亚完成火上行走后昏倒。当他返回轮船时，一切显得截然不同，人们开始称他为 Alec Graham。在空乘 Margrethe 的陪伴下，他任凭某种至高力量的摆布，在一系列平行宇宙中穿梭变迁。这究竟只是偏执狂的妄想，还是 God（或 Satan、Loki）存心要惩治他？

……我对《不惧邪恶》（Fear no Evil）的微词在于，我是刚读完所有拉撒路·朗（Lazarus Long）系列故事（我超喜欢）之后紧接着读它的，相比之下《不惧邪恶》就没那么好看了……不过我确实挺喜欢他在这之后写的《约伯：正义的喜剧》（Job A Comedy of Justice）……这本跟他别的书很不寻常，虽然算不上神作，但挺好玩的。《星期五》（Friday）是他为数不多我没读过的小说之一……
…my problem with Fear no Evil is that I read it just after reading all of the Lazarus Long stories (which I enjoyed a lot) and coming from that Fear no Evil just wasn't as good... I actually did like Job A Comedy of Justice which he wrote after Fear no Evil... It's very different from his other books and I wouldn't say it's great but it's fun. Friday is one of his few novels that I never read..
我以前从没听说过这本书，但这描述让我想起了罗伯特·海因莱因的小说《约伯：正义的喜剧》（Job: A Comedy of Justice）。尤其是那句“全书最后的包袱是，也许撒旦到头来并不是坏人”。我已经把它加进书单了。多谢！https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job:_A_Comedy_of_Justice
I have never heard of this book before, but the description made me think of the Robert Heinlein novel 'Job: A Comedy of Justice'. Especially the line "The final joke of the book is that maybe Satan is not the bad guy after all" I am adding it to my reading list. Thanks! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job:_A_Comedy_of_Justice
至少在漫威电影宇宙（MCU）之前，洛基尤其被普遍当成单纯的恶作剧/诡计之神——我猜部分原因是因为各种漫画/动画的处理。海因莱因在《约伯：正义的喜剧》（Job: A Comedy of Justice）里花了不少笔墨来给这个形象做“平反”。
Pre-MCU at least, Loki in particular had come to be seen as god of merely mischief/trickery--I assume in part from various comic/cartoon treatments. Heinlein spends some time on this "rehabilitation" in Job: A Comedy of Justice.
是的，简直是一路往上套娃的元神（meta-gods all the way up）。另见：https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job:_A_Comedy_of_Justice
And yes, it's meta-gods all the way up. See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job:_A_Comedy_of_Justice
