Two months have past since a myriad of alien objects clenched about the Earth, screaming as they burned. The heavens have been silent since--until a derelict space probe hears whispers from a distant comet. Something talks out there: but not to us.

Two months have past since a myriad of alien objects clenched about the Earth, screaming as they burned. The heavens have been silent since--until a derelict space probe hears whispers from a distant comet. Something talks out there: but not to us.
Who you do send to meet the alien
when the alien doesn't want to meet?
You send a linguist with multiple personalities carved surgically into her brain. You send
a biologist so radically interfaced with machinery that he sees x-rays and tastes ultra-
sound, so compromised by grafts and splices he no longer feels his own flesh. You
send a pacifist warrior whose career-defining moment was an act of treason. You
send a monster to command them all, an extinct hominid predator once called
vampire, recalled from the grave with the voodoo of recombinant genetics
and the blood of sociopaths. And you send a synthesist — an
informational topologist with half his mind gone — as an
interface between here and there, a conduit through
which the Dead Center might hope to understand
the Bleeding Edge.
You send them all to the edge of interstellar space, praying you
can trust such freaks and retrofits with the fate of a world.
You fear they may be more alien than the thing they've
been sent to find.
But you'd give anything for that to be true, if you
only knew what was waiting for them...

设定很有新意,故事偏无趣。

没读完,看不下去了。 读到 "Siri," I said. "Freelance synthesist, indentured servant to the genes and machines that turned you into a parasite."

表面上是向外的科学扩张,实则是向内的自我探索,我对这本书的阅读体验也在“完全读不懂”“似懂非懂”“以为自己懂了”中不断徘徊。虽然情节支离破碎,可读性不高,但概念大于一切,于是看着看着也就流泪了。也许是想到总以观察者角度“冷眼旁观”的自己,虽然在有意识的进行学习(或是说对共情能力的拙劣模仿)但却始终无法做个“正常人”——这一点倒是像极了只剩半边人类大脑的Siri。如果有的选,我倒是情愿没有意识/理性... 表面上是向外的科学扩张,实则是向内的自我探索,我对这本书的阅读体验也在“完全读不懂”“似懂非懂”“以为自己懂了”中不断徘徊。虽然情节支离破碎,可读性不高,但概念大于一切,于是看着看着也就流泪了。也许是想到总以观察者角度“冷眼旁观”的自己,虽然在有意识的进行学习(或是说对共情能力的拙劣模仿)但却始终无法做个“正常人”——这一点倒是像极了只剩半边人类大脑的Siri。如果有的选,我倒是情愿没有意识/理性,只留下情感:最充沛最无用但也最特别的人类情感。 “People aren't rational.

What if consciousness/ self-awareness is a liar and all it can do is hindering & hampering? 这本真是太好看了,虽然一直知道 reality其实是对于每个人来说的perception, 而perception中很多都是/全是illusion,但这本看下来还是开启了新的种族level看consciousness...
