Winer of the Hugo and Nebula Awards In order to develop a secure defense against a hostile alien race's next attack, government agencies breed child geniuses and train them as soldiers. A brilliant young boy, Andrew "Ender" Wiggin lives with his kind but distant parents, his sadistic brother Peter, and the person he loves more than anyone else, his sister Valentine. Peter and Valentine were candidates for the soldier-training program but didn't make the cut--young Ender is the Wiggin drafted to the orbiting Battle School for rigorous military training. Ender's skills make him a leader in school and respected in the Battle Room, where children play at mock battles in zero gravity. Yet growing up in an artificial community of young soldiers Ender suffers greatly from isolation, rivalry from his peers, pressure from the adult teachers, and an unsettling fear of the alien invaders. His psychological battles include loneliness, fear that he is becoming like the cruel brother he remembers, and fanning the flames of devotion to his beloved sister. Is Ender the general Earth needs? But Ender is not the only result of the genetic experiments. The war with the Buggers has been raging for a hundred years, and the quest for the perfect general has been underway for almost as long. Ender's two older siblings are every bit as unusual as he is, but in very different ways. Between the three of them lie the abilities to remake a world. If, that is, the world survives.
奥森・斯科特・卡德--Orson Scott Card
奥森・斯科特・卡德是当今美国科幻界最炙手可热的人物之一。在美国科幻史上,从来没有人在两年内连续两次将“雨果”和“星云”两大科幻奖尽收囊中,直到卡德横空出世。1986年,他的《安德的游戏》囊括雨果奖、星云奖,1987年,其续集《死者代言人》再次包揽了这两个世界科幻文学的最高奖项
卡德生于华盛顿州里奇兰,在犹他州长大,分别在杨百翰大学和犹他大学取得学位,目前定居于北卡罗莱纳州。卡德坚信小说具有教化意义,应该向读者传递积极上进的信息。“安德”系列小说便充分反映出作者的这种观念。这个系列还包括《安德的影子》《霸主的影子》等
一般来说,由于其独特的故事背景和写作上的诉求,奇幻文学是属于特定年龄层面人群的读物。比起庞大的奇幻文学全体,适合大多数人来读的此类只占有一小部分。他们也大多被奉为经典,比如《哈利波特》等。《安德的游戏》像极了罗琳女士的作品,他们都是关于一个男孩如何成为一个...
评分作者在“前言”中说到:他写这部小说,有意用了极浅显、直白的语言。人们为什么读小说?在他看来,晦涩难懂的文字让批评者有了饭碗,而普通人则去故事中需找相似的灵魂。 我想他太过强调这样一个讲述天才儿童如何拯救世界的故事能在普通人中引起的那种“啊,那不正是我所经历...
评分蕴含了巨大的处世和自省自勉的能量,抱着书躺在床上废寝忘食了几天--我看书慢,看好书更慢,总有太多让我折过来回味的地方~细节也很丰富,主人公的心理描写也相当成功,最关键的还是节奏一流啊!所以常常被我用来送给好友,买了好几本,还是觉得不够...
评分喜欢的科幻小说搬上大银幕,我在Kindle上重读了「Ender's Game」。 (中:「安德的游戏」、台:「战争游戏」)。 // 剧透,未看打算看的朋友最好在此止步、转身。// 像是算计到有我这种读者的存在,电影相当贪婪的以两小时尺度来照搬小说里...
评分自从亚当夏娃因为毒蛇的谎言而偷吃了智慧果之后,人类很快就学会了撒谎,并且将谎言活学活用,开启了滔滔不绝的说谎历程。谎言几乎就是人类文明的一部分,甚至有时候它本身就是文明的象征:历史上,大部分的统治都是建立在一个弥天大谎的基础之上。 《安德的游戏》,也是...
good book, but not my taste.
评分很赞。看的比较慢,还得继续培养阅读和理解能力。
评分“If you could make them feel as you can make me feel, then perhaps they could forgive you.”
评分一个十岁孩子的钢铁岁月
评分I read this at 25... arrested development
