When Albert Einstein told Franklin Roosevelt in 1939 that the atomic bomb was possible, he did not tell the president about another discovery he had made, something so extreme and horrific it remained a secret . . . until now. This extraordinary new novel from one of the most brilliant talents in contemporary fiction is a standout literary thriller in which one man stumbles upon the discovery Einstein himself tried to keep hidden. </p>
When twelve-year-old Daphne Marrity takes a videotape labeled Pee-wee's Big Adventure from her grandmother's house, neither she nor her college-professor father, Frank Marrity, has any idea that the theft has drawn the attention of both the Israeli Secret Service and an ancient European cabal of occultists-or that within hours they'll be visited by her long-lost grandfather, who is also desperate to get that tape. </p>
And when Daphne's teddy bear is stolen, a blind assassin nearly kills Frank, and a phantom begins to speak to her from a switched-off television set, Daphne and her father find themselves caught in the middle of a murderous power struggle that originated long ago in Israel and Germany but now crashes through Los Angeles and out to the Mojave Desert. To survive, they must quickly learn the rules of a dangerous magical chess game and use all their cleverness and courage-as well as their love and loyalty to each other-to escape a fate more profound than death. </p>
A pulse-pounding epic adventure that blurs the lines between espionage and the supernatural; good and evil; past, present and future, Three Days to Never is an exhilarating masterwork of speculative suspense from the always remarkable imagination of the incomparable Tim Powers. </p>
提姆·鮑爾斯 Tim Powers:

很早之前,看蒸汽朋克作品介绍时,曾经提到《阿努比斯之门》乃蒸汽朋克作品的必看书籍,那时候开始我就留意上这本书,并在几个月前买下了,说真当我看完《阿努比斯之门》后,真的觉得出乎意外之外的精彩,一时间为提姆·鲍尔斯之疯狂,于是他的另一本已经有了中译本的《三...
評分这部科幻小说读了较长时间,7个长假日每天近2小时。刚开始是过脑子地细读,每个人物、每个细节很认真得确认和浏览,尤其是对于作者的细节描写印象深刻,比如勒皮多普特把烟揿灭在杯子里又拿着个杯子去泡咖啡,这种细节描写既烘衬出人物的心理又富有镜头感。类似这种前头不经意...

評分首先,这部小说有一个很有意思的地方,就是它设定我们现在这个现实世界,实际上是已经被爱因斯坦改变过一次了的世界。 在爱因斯坦1928用发明了的时间机器第一次返回过去去改变某个人的命运后,这个世界从此以后就不再按照它原来的历史轨迹前进了。爱因斯坦改变了什么人的命运呢...
