Neil Gaiman meets Joe Hill in this astonishingly original, terrifying, and darkly funny contemporary fantasy.
Carolyn's not so different from the other human beings around her. She's sure of it. She likes guacamole and cigarettes and steak. She knows how to use a phone. She even remembers what clothes are for.
After all, she was a normal American herself, once.
That was a long time ago, of course--before the time she calls "adoption day," when she and a dozen other children found themselves being raised by a man they learned to call Father.
Father could do strange things. He could call light from darkness. Sometimes he raised the dead. And when he was disobeyed, the consequences were terrible.
In the years since Father took her in, Carolyn hasn't gotten out much. Instead, she and her adopted siblings have been raised according to Father's ancient Pelapi customs. They've studied the books in his library and learned some of the secrets behind his equally ancient power.
Sometimes, they've wondered if their cruel tutor might secretly be God.
Now, Father is missing. And if God truly is dead, the only thing that matters is who will inherit his library--and with it, power over all of creation.
As Carolyn gathers the tools she needs for the battle to come, fierce competitors for this prize align against her.
But Carolyn can win. She's sure of it. What she doesn't realize is that her victory may come at an unacceptable price--because in becoming a God, she's forgotten a great deal about being human.
司各特·霍金斯(1969- ),美国当代幻想作家,现居佐治亚州亚特兰大。
关于本书的创作,身为电脑程序员的司各特·霍金斯这么说:
我在家里的地下室写作,用的是Win7台式机。平板和笔记本我用不了,手太大。
2012年夏天的那三个月,我写完了《上帝的图书馆》的主体部分。那段时间,除了这本书,我脑子里什么都不想。周末的时候,我凌晨两三点起床,一直写到下午六点——完全沉浸其中,打字的速度都快跟不上了。
灵感迸发时,写小说是最美好的事。
同样美好的是,作为司各特·霍金斯的长篇处女作,本书刚一上市便在美国幻迷中引发了轰动。
后半部没有前半部那么惊艳,有点父慈女孝唯有真爱解救一切的既视感【什么鬼。。。综合来看还是很爽!我喜欢作者开脑洞的方式!

有些阴暗,又有些温暖,喜欢这书读起来的感觉,书里说“最难的部分是如何让她熬过训练,同时让她的心完好无损”。这书读来比《万物系列》有剧情的多,但是最后结尾却一样温暖。 为了贯彻自己的意志,为了让自己过得好些,我们努力了很多很多,努力越过各种各样的试炼,心也变得...
评分黑暗黑暗,非常的黑暗。要不是我读过《安徒生童话暗黑版》,我估计一时很难接受,而且我还读过《楼下七房客》,都是比较另类的风格。暗黑风格,体会一下,也不错。 我会不会推荐给我的子侄辈呢,我想应该不会,但是我会推荐给我的朋友们。也可以适当换个风格试一试。这本书,前...
