內容介紹

★    來自加拿大極光獎知名作家全新科幻小說,講述了三個勇敢的人類陷入跨越時空的衝突。

 

生物學家朱利·E·澤奈達的新獨立科幻小說,《致每一個這世界》遵循了一項絕望的任務,那就是重新連接上幾個世紀前從地球派往遙遠的世界定居卻失散已久的沉睡船艦。
 
三個人類必須與他們神秘的外星盟友合作,拯救他們在那些世界裡可以找到的任何後代。某物種在那裡,決心奪取宇宙的所有權,只有在地球上,人類才能安全。
 
但這又是真的嗎?隨著故事的演進,或許讀者還是要為地球人類的安全打上問號。
 
挑戰不僅僅是在於幾代光陰過去之後如何與自己的同種族進行交流,還在於了解什麼根本不是你的同類。當真相取決於你是什麼時,信任又將會帶你走多遠?

 

★    澤奈達作品好評:

「朱利·E·澤奈達是 21 世紀領銜的科幻作家之一。作為一名生物學家,她為她的小說中外星生物學的廣泛可能性帶來了獨特的眼光,結果帶來了所有現代科幻小說中最快樂的外星人角色。」 ——黑門(Black Gate)

 

「《搜索圖片》有我最喜歡的設定之一(一個包羅萬象的外星人圖書館),還有大量有趣的外星人。澤奈達的世界建築和對生物細節的關注令人驚嘆,以及我總是期待在她的書中看到的東西。」——The Obsessive Bookseller

書評

Praise for the fiction of Julie E. Czerneda

“The search for the 21st-century’s Larry Niven is now officially over. Julie E. Czerneda gives us a galaxy-spanning vision of credible aliens and high-stakes conflict. A wonderful book.” —Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo Award-winning author of Hominids

“To Each This World has everything—compelling worlds, rich history, vivid characters, and more. With a slew of powerhouse novels under her belt, this is Czerneda at her best.” —Brandon Crilly, author of Catalyst

“Czerneda serves up the real stuff—a suspensefully original, sci-tech tale of alien contact, as interstellar humanity seeks a perilous path out of a lethal trap.” —David Brin, author of Earth and Kiln People

“A tale of a fascinating future that’s gripping from the start...between sundered human societies and truly compelling aliens, Czerneda makes first contact fresh again!” —Derek Künsken, author of The House of Styx

“A grand high concept science fiction epic in the classic tradition.” —Eric Choi, Aurora Award-winning author of Just Like Being There

“Julie E. Czerneda has done it again! Aliens, interstellar travel, and deeply rich worlds, To Each This World weaves a tale that is compelling from the first page until the last. This novel is a must read.” —Gerald Brandt, author of the Quantum Empirica

“A startling message from beyond the stars and the diplomat tasked with finding the source. A pilot with an agenda of her own. Fully-realized alien races and a ship that's part habitat/part archeological dig. To Each This World offers all that and more besides, including the rich interpersonal relationships and biological extrapolations that Czerneda is known for.” —Kristine Smith, author of the Jani Kilian series

"Julie Czerneda's novels ignite my sense of wonder, from the amazing worlds she creates, to the fully realized aliens and likeable characters. I eagerly await her next." —Kristen Britain, New York Times-bestselling author of Green Rider

"Search Image is the guaranteed most delightful and fun SF read of the year." —Marie Bilodeau, author of the Aurora-nominated Destiny series

"As always, there are plenty of oddball alien hijinks, misunderstandings, and intrigues, all illustrating how badly the library is needed while providing excellent entertainment." —Locus

"Czerneda also continues her tradition of having richly developed, believable characters, which makes her stories a joy to read." —SF Site

"Whether you laugh, cry or think, “Gee. That could happen”, my bet is that you will have enjoyed the trip and will be looking for more from Julie E. Czerneda." —SF Reader

"Julie E. Czerneda is one of the leading SF writers of the 21st Century. A biologist by trade, she’s brought a unique appreciation for the far-ranging possibilities of extraterrestrial biology to her fiction, and the result has been some of the most joyously alien characters in all of modern SF." —Black Gate

"Search Image had one of my favorite settings so far (an all-inclusive alien library), and an abundance of interesting aliens. Czerneda’s worldbuilding and attention to biological detail is amazing, and something I always look forward to in her books." —The Obsessive Bookseller

"Once I started reading Search Image I could not put it down. I laughed, I cried; I’ll be honest, I hugged and smelled it quite a few times. I couldn’t help myself. I was so happy to have it in my hands." —BookGirl's BookNook

"This new fantasy is wildly imaginative and suspenseful.... A remarkable alien makes this new addition in the Web Shifter’s series one to enjoy." —Bookaholic Romance Book Club
