书籍简介

获奖作家阿德里安·柴可夫斯基的《人造之物》是一部黑暗却又异想天开的奇幻故事，充满了魔法、半法师和傀儡同伴。结交朋友可能意味着毁灭和丰厚回报之间的区别……

欢迎来到喷泉教区——一个充斥着商业和犯罪的污水坑，野心在这里卷土重来，绝望在鹅卵石街道上滋生，就像放了一周的面包上长霉一样。科佩莉亚是一位街头小偷，也是一位略懂魔法的骗子。

她还拥有其他小偷所没有的东西……

小小的傀儡般的同伴：有些是木头做的，有些是金属做的。他们并不完全信任她，她也不完全理解他们，但他们的合作大多时候还算有效。但它能否经受住比偷窃更大的挑战？当地一位犯罪头目注意到了科佩莉亚的成功，并强迫她协助一项高风险的抢劫：闯入一位法师的宫殿掠夺宝藏。

她知道这次非法冒险可能会让她倾家荡产，也可能让他们倾家荡产。但一个意外的发现彻底动摇了他们的世界——科佩莉亚和她的朋友们被迫面对这座伟大城市本身的威胁。本书附赠短篇小说《珍贵的小事》！* * *对阿德里安·柴可夫斯基的赞誉“业内优秀的讲故事者之一”——约翰·斯卡尔齐，《老人对服务模式的战争》作者“精彩绝伦！”——约翰·格温，《老虎与狼的恶意》作者“很少有当代作家能像阿德里安·柴可夫斯基那样，既擅长创作厚重的远未来硬科幻，也擅长创作高奇幻史诗”——《卫报》

Award-winning author Adrian Tchaikovsky’s Made Things is a dark yet whimsical fantasy tale full of magic, half-mages and puppet companions. Making friends could mean the difference between ruin and great reward . .

. Welcome to Fountains Parish – a cesspit of trade and crime, where ambition curls up to die and desperation grows on its cobbled streets like mould on week-old bread. Coppelia is a street thief and a trickster with a small talent for magic.

She also has something other thieves don’t . . .

tiny puppet-like companions: some made of wood, some of metal. They don’t entirely trust her, and she doesn’t entirely understand them, but their partnership mostly works. But can it survive a far bigger challenge than picking a pocket or two?A local crime lord has noted Coppelia’s success and compels her to assist in a high-stakes heist: breaking into a mage’s palace to plunder its treasures.

She knows this illicit adventure could either break her or make all their fortunes. But a surprising discovery shakes their world to the core – and Coppelia and her friends are forced to face a threat to the great city itself. Includes the bonus short story, ‘Precious Little Things’!* * *Praise for Adrian Tchaikovsky‘One of the best storytellers in the business’ – John Scalzi, author of Old Man’s War on Service Model‘Addictively brilliant!’ – John Gwynne, author of Malice on The Tiger and the Wolf‘Few contemporary writers have Adrian Tchaikovsky’s range, excelling at chunky far-future hard SF as well as high-fantasy epics’ – The Guardian
