[讨论] 大家可以推薦一些好看的英文小說嗎?

如題~~偶已經習慣了,看文就上YY.文荒的話就去連載區翻翻,看到對胃口的就點最後一頁先看大家的評論,確定沒啥天雷才開始.
中文小說有YY在偶不怕文荒,但是英文小說就難辦了..尼瑪太容易踩中地雷啊有木有!
因為好像很少網絡小說,網上的書評都是一些名人媒體,不大靠譜的趕腳..都是朋友推薦驗證過才敢看的orz..
但是不夠看啊,一下子就文荒了~~
大家有啥好推薦的嗎?什麽類型也可以,只要不天雷狗血orz
我比较喜欢 fantasy:

The Kingkiller Chronicle:
    The Name of the Wind (April 2007)
    The Wise Man's Fear (March 2011)
    The Doors of Stone (forthcoming)

在等第三本出来.

Plot: The series is essentially the biography of a famous musician, mage, and adventurer named Kvothe. After gaining notoriety at a young age, he disappears from public life and is eventually tracked down to a backwater inn by Devan Lochees, who is known as "the Chronicler". After some persuasion, the Chronicler convinces Kvothe to tell him his life story, which Kvothe announces will take three days (hence the name of the novel—The Kingkiller Chronicle, Day One—and its division into volumes). However, Kvothe's tale is occasionally punctuated by interludes set in the story's "present day", during which it becomes clear that faerie folk, known to the locals as demons, are showing up uncommonly frequently. Meanwhile, Kvothe's friend and apprentice Bast is unwilling to let the Chronicler tell all of Kvothe's story, and Kvothe is implied to be an untrustworthy narrator. The story thus proceeds on two levels: Kvothe tells his life story via First-person narrative, while the framing device hints that his life story may not actually be complete yet.

现在在看

正在看第一本,挺好看的。

Plot: The Lies of Locke Lamora is a fantasy novel by Scott Lynch. It follows the adventures of a group of con artists known as the Gentlemen Bastards. They live in a city called Camorr, heavily based on late medieval Venice. The book is divided into two interspersed stories. In the present time, the Gentlemen Bastards must contend with the Grey King, a powerful figure terrorizing Camorr's criminal community. Every other chapter, however, delves into the history and mythology of Camorr, the Gentlemen Bastards, and especially the protagonist Locke Lamora.

很久以前无意的看了第二本,很好看。比较成人。

如果想找书的话去:http://www.goodreads.com, 都是读者的review.

-------------
还有,也有原创英语小说网的,比如 fictionpress.com 就有很多不错的文。可惜这些网不让你用积分搜索,很难找到好文,只能以多少review来判断(1000-2000 review就是红作者了)。

http://www.adultfanfiction.net/ -> 成人同人小说,也有不错的原创,慎入,需要输入生日(可以乱填。。)

Howl's Moving Castle作者写的一系列魔法小说都很好看。

Agatha Christie所有的書,不用廢話了。而且她用的英文相對的比較簡單,Jane Austin的看原文的話英文底子要很好的說。

The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13¾ by Sue Townsend,還有接下來的主角Adrian Mole 長大的系列,我一直覺得這書不但好玩,而且是一部可以很好的了解英國社會的書。作者的幽默要細看,很多是不直接點出來的,看明白了會笑死的那種。

Appelsinpiken (The Orange Girl) by Jostein Gaarder, 當然英文也是翻譯過來的。喬斯旦最出名的不是這一部,但是這書非常非常浪漫淒美,間中淡淡的對宇宙之無窮和永恆的美好追求懷想真令人感動萬分。

The Little Women 是老書了,英文原文非常值得一看。

The Catcher in the Rye 这个我常重看,厕所读物之一——我觉得我特么简直陷入了永出不去的青春泥沼中
The Great Gatsby
村上春树小说的英译版——这个纯粹是因为无聊看的,结果觉得别有意趣。
Leguin的 The child and the shadow 我最喜欢的文,没有之一。
还有她Earthsea fantasy一系列小说,比哈利波特好看吧……(当然哈利波特的英文版我也看过,是为了练阅读)
