Wahnsinnig viel Wissen - über Programmieren, Geschichte, die Bibel... - kombiniert mit einer grandiosen Voraussicht. Leider manchmal etwas zu ausführlich und die Szenen im Metaverse teilweise arg brutal. ( ) This book was pretty good. Started off a little slow and disjointed, but as you learn more and more of what's going on it all starts fitting together. Some familiar tropes with the Metaverse and a sword-wielding hacker, but a lot of moving parts throughout the book and an interesting theory/idea to build a plot around.
Hiro Protagonist (who has chosen his own name, of course) turns out to be entertaining company, and Mr. Stephenson turns out to be an engaging guide to an onrushing tomorrow that is as farcical as it is horrific. Stephenson has not stepped, he has vaulted onto the literary stage with this novel. A cross between Neuromancer and Thomas Pynchon's Vineland. This is no mere hyperbole.
