Nevare Burvelle is the second son of a second son, destined from birth to carry a sword. The wealthy young noble follows his father - newly made a lord by the King of Gernia - into the cavalry, training in the military arts at the elite King's Cavella Academy in the capital city of Old Thares. Bright and well educated, an excellent horseman with an advantageous engagement, Navare has a future that appears golden.
But as his Academy instruction progresses, Nevare begins to realize that the road before him is far from straight. The old aristocracy looks down on him as the son of a "new noble," and unprepared for the political and social maneuvering of the deeply competitive school and city, he finds himself entangled in a web of injustice, discrimination, and foul play. In addition, he is disquieted by his unconventional girl-cousin Epiny - who challenges his heretofore unwavering worldview - and by the bizarre dreams that haunt his nights.
For twenty years the king's cavalry has pushed across the grasslands, subduing and settling its nomads and claiming the territory in Gernia's name. Now they have driven as far as the Barrier Mountains, home to the Speck people, a quiet, forest-dwelling folk who retain the last vestiges of magic in a world that is rapidly modernizing. From childhood Nevare has been taught that the Specks are a primitive people to be pitied for their backward ways - and feared for the indigenous diseases, including the deadly Speck plague, which has ravaged the frontier towns and military outposts.
Then Dark Evening brings the carnival to Old Thares, and with it an unknown magic, and the first Specks Nevare has ever seen.

简单的描述一下,这书就是一个小孩即将在上流社会打酱油的展望以及在军队正在打酱油的打怪升级。 看这书在美国被列为儿童文学,啧啧,美国儿童好幸福啊,童年就可以各种各种乱伦强暴阴谋狡诈鸡奸施虐布拉布拉。书里一个孙子不遗余力在教导某孩子开化文明以及理性,这可真是阿基...
评分确认了一下,上下册的译者是同一人。那么为什么上册的“斥候”到下册就变成了“侦察员”?这只是我的一个猜测,可能原文就是两个不同的词吧。 回到小说本身:节奏一如既往地缓慢,罗苹荷布风格如此,因为文笔不错所以还是可以接受的。另外大量的细节描写使得整个背景显得很真...
评分《刺客正传》看了都忘得差不多,《士兵之子》也是放了许久才开始翻,隐隐觉得这两部奇幻小说有些雷同,都是讲一个小男孩历经磨难拯救世界的故事。 每个人都有学龄前童年和学龄时的少年,随着时间,青少年的记忆会慢慢模糊,仅仅记得的一些都是用好与不好做最后的结论,经过不...

评分苹果阿姨的这本书断断续续读完,前后大概花了半个来月。当然,470k的字数,总的阅读时间大概有十小时以上。读书慢这毛病看来近两年是改善不了了。阅读频率方面,大概一周抽两个上午或者晚上来进行。书本身很吸引人,但是由于杂志之类的在手边,属于快速浏览的范畴不知觉就优先...
