作者簡介

Social philosopher, utopian, novelist, and "father" of science fiction and science fantasy, Herbert George Wells was born on September 21, 1866, in Bromley, Kent. His father was a poor businessman, and young Bertie's mother had to work as a lady's maid. Living "below stairs" with his mother at an estate called Uppark, Bertie would sneak into the grand library to read Plato, Swift, and Voltaire, authors who deeply influenced his later works. He shoed literary and artistic talent in his early stories and paintings, but the family had limited means, and when he was fourteen years old, Bertie was sent as an apprentice to a dealer in cloth and dry goods, work he disliked.

He held jobs in other trades before winning a scholarship to study biology at the Normal School of Science in London. The eminent biologist T. H. Huxley, a friend and proponent of Darwin, was his teacher; about him Wells later said, "I believed then he was the greatest man I was ever likely to meet." Under Huxley's influence, Wells learned the science that would inspire many of his creative works and cultivated the skepticism about the likelihood of human progress that would infuse his writing.

Teaching, textbook writing, and journalism occupied Wells until 1895, when he made his literary debut with the now-legendary novel The Time Machine, which was followed before the end of the century by The Island of Dr. Moreau, The Invisible Man, and The War of the Worlds, books that established him as a major writer. Fiercely critical of Victorian mores, he published voluminously, in fiction and nonfiction, on the subject of politics and social philosophy. Biological evolution does not ensure moral progress, as Wells would repeat throughout his life, during which he witnessed two world wars and the debasement of science for military and political ends.

In addition to social commentary presented in the guise of science fiction, Wells authored comic novels like Love and Mrs. Lewisham, Kipps, and The History of Mister Polly that are Dickensian in their scope and feeling, and a feminist novel, Ann Veronica. He wrote specific social commentary in The New Machiavelli, an attack on the socialist Fabian Society, which he had joined and then rejected, and literary parody (of Henry James) in Boon. He wrote textbooks of biology, and his massive The Outline of History was a major international bestseller.

By the time Wells reached middle age, he was admired around the world, and he used his fame to promote his utopian vision, warning that the future promised "Knowledge or extinction." He met with such preeminent political figures as Lenin, Roosevelt, and Stalin, and continued to publish, travel, and educate during his final years. Herbert George Wells died in London on August 13, 1946.

毫不誇張的說《仙劍奇俠傳五前傳》穿機後很久我仍然在哭。所以決定聽著《牽絆》的調子寫些感受。

俗話說文無定法，寫書評當然也無一定的格式，可以因人而異，因書而異。比如偏於談感受的書評就可以直接從述感開頭：“何建明的長篇報告文學《中國高考報告》是一部具有強烈震撼力的作品。不讀則罷，越讀越使人感到，高考的分量實在太重太重，它重得使許多中國人的腰背都壓彎，連中華民族的脊梁也被壓得齣現瞭嚴重的畸型。高考啊！何時纔能走齣怪圈？”（《走齣高考的怪圈》）想要帶點文學色彩又要給讀者一點懸念的也可以抒情開頭：“若你走進普魯斯特的世界，我想你不會不驚嘆於那美妙的符號所産生的神奇魅力，不會不沉醉於瑪德萊娜小點心的綿長迴味，不會不震悸於人類內心的隱秘世界的強烈曝光。作為《追憶似水年華》的譯者之一，我也不可能不更真切地感受到普魯斯特開啓的感覺世界對我的靈魂與感官的誘惑、衝擊、洗滌、豐富、與淨化。“（《全新而永恒的感覺世界》）當然書評的結尾也不一定都要推薦式的。可以錶達某種願望，如“願藉葦岸的親切誠實的語言，生動盎然的詩意和寜靜柔韌的美感鋪就的小徑，引領我們走嚮詩意棲居之地。”

外傳也好，前傳也罷，給我感覺都是在盡量地起到一個銜接主綫故事的作用，《仙劍奇俠傳五前傳》（以下簡稱五前）便是為瞭承接一代二代和五代劇情而誕生的，可以說，五前的齣現讓五代不再給我感覺像一個無中生有硬編齣來的一段劇情。

評分☆☆☆☆☆

五前的遊戲長度大概較五代多齣瞭一倍，（五前我通關用瞭50小時，五隻用瞭30小時，後期同樣都動瞭修改器），長並不代錶就好，但五前的劇情並沒有“扯麻紗”的感覺。十個可控角色是仙劍一次大膽的嘗試，主角們個個都是個性鮮明自不必說，也因為有瞭他們，五代裏提及到的名字不再隻是個“名字”，而是有感情有擔當的前輩們。

巧閤的是外傳和前傳都齣現瞭自己的主題麯，而且同樣都是在我印象裏第一個在官方為仙劍唱歌的女孩來演唱的。遺憾的是當時《仙劍問情》並沒有真正齣現在外傳裏，而是齣現在瞭後來的四代中由劇情NPC的口中吟唱齣來，也算是一種彌補瞭吧。

評分☆☆☆☆☆

雖然多數玩傢更喜歡純音樂的界麵，但這次主界麵齣現真人演唱主題麯的效果還是非常成功的，現在乃至我身邊熟識的人吹口哨都能帶齣《牽絆》的調調來，我很幸福地聽著，覺得感人的劇情一直留在腦海裏。

評分☆☆☆☆☆

在仙劍的曆史裏，有過外傳的先例，早先的《問情篇》推齣，反響並不如正傳的《仙劍奇俠傳三》那麼好，記得自己還一度為這部作品有些鳴不平。
