    Neal Stephenson is a blazing new force on the sci-fi scene. With the groundbreaking cyberpunk novel Snow Crash, he has "vaulted onto the literary stage." It weaves virtual reality, Sumerian myth, and just about everything in between with a cool, hip cybersensibility - in short, it is the gigathriller of the information age.

    Brent says: "A solid sci-fi novel"
    "Don't Bother"

    Story
    This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

    Someone who likes action interspersed with pedantic dialogue. I got so fed up I quit.


    What could Neal Stephenson have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

    Cut it in half.


    Did Jonathan Davis do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

    Yes.


    Any additional comments?

    I got so bored with all of the history lessons I gave up before finishing the book. The concept of languages being related to viruses is interesting, but it got lost in all of the dialog between Hero and the Librarian.
