For Kivrin, preparing an on-site study of one of the deadliest eras in humanity's history was as simple as receiving inoculations against the diseases of the fourteenth century and inventing an alibi for a woman traveling alone. For her instructors in the twenty-first century, it meant painstaking calculations and careful monitoring of the rendezvous location where Kivrin would be received.
But a crisis strangely linking past and future strands Kivrin in a bygone age as her fellows try desperately to rescue her. In a time of superstition and fear, Kivrin -- barely of age herself -- finds she has become an unlikely angel of hope during one of history's darkest hours.
Five years in the writing by one of science fiction's most honored authors, Doomsday Book is a storytelling triumph. Connie Willis draws upon her understanding of the universalities of human nature to explore the ageless issues of evil, suffering and the indomitable will of the human spirit.
Connie Willis is an established author of many science fiction books, including THE DOOMSDAY BOOK, and winner of both the Nebula Award and the Hugo Award for best sf novel.

我看完这本小说感觉一般,或许因为这是一个穿越小说的缘故。 Connie对历史的还原和细节的描写的上很有功底,但这本小说看完也就是感觉是一个故事,看完就完的那种。 把故事放在历史中,纵使写出一个精雕细琢的作品,也跳不出历史的框框。我还是比较喜欢那些以宏大宇宙为故事背...
評分作为一部顶着双奖光环的科幻小说,末日之门给了我多年未有的阅读体验:读到一半时,恨不得把作者揪出来扇俩大耳刮子。我写下本书评,以提醒后来的读者,不要被首页清一色的五星书评骗了,节省下你生命中宝贵的几个小时,去干点别的事吧 小字体,大开本,400多页,末日之书属于...
評分非典时期,我忘记那时自己在读一本什么样的科幻小说,毕竟6年前的时候,科幻小说的品种和数量相对于现在还是很匮乏的。当周围都笼罩在甲流的恐惧和担心时,在这个非常的时期,我想自己应该记住手中的这本《末日之书》。也许很多年后,自己回忆起这段和非典一样紧张的时期时,会...
評分 評分曆史小說。適閤讀兩遍,第一遍速度看劇情,第二遍慢下來讀細節。我第一遍細讀的時候到瞭一半很焦躁...
评分感興趣
评分似乎不少人不喜歡但超級閤我胃口
评分剛開始有點不太習慣奶奶這種事無巨細的文風,堅持到後麵會越來越有味道,但真的,前麵節奏太慢瞭…………太……慢……瞭…………不然值得五星
评分過於囉嗦,三分之二內容是在反反復復嚼話頭。即使不以上帝視角來看,人物的行為也非常魯莽無知,如同兒戲,簡直懷疑作者故意醜化牛津教授和學生。前兩章節對照中譯本來看,中文不必要地刪節瞭很多語句,也有一些錯譯,實在很不理解。
