If I could graph my feelings about this book during the course of the read, the curve would start high, wind even higher as I grew accustomed to Stephenson's creative language, but then about two-thirds of the way through, it would take a sharp turn downward and continue to drop until the end. Let me elaborate.This is the first Neal Stephenson book I've read. It took me some time to calibrate my mind to his unique linguistic flare, but once I did, I was dazzled. Like Kurt Vonnegut bathed in silicon carbide and plugged into a local power station, Stephenson creates an original, imaginative, vividly poetic world. The book has one of the highest Creative Density Ratios (CDRs) I've encountered in a novel. It's as if Stephenson manages to fold creativity into the tiny dimensions at the core of reality to electrify the gestalt experience for his readers. Written in 1992, the book still feels ahead of its time. The prose is like a drug. I was transfixed.But, as the book wore on, I felt Stephenson grew tired of his own story. The dazzling originality stopped and the payoff of everything set up in the first two-thirds felt lethargic and labored. There were no thunderous twists or infusions of imagination. He just went through the motions to tie up loose ends, and the finale was abrupt and dull. On the last page he writes, "after a while it gets boring..." and I feel like he himself got bored with the story and gave up.Snow Crash is a fabulous work of genius. I just wish Stephenson had stuck with it a little longer to make its blinding success absolute.

The Bad:Tonal shifts. “Snow Crash” starts with some legendary levels of satire, but the consistency for said tone drops off after 50 or 60 pages. The satire remains, but the more the novel progresses, the more an afterthought that satire seems. In the middle of the book, the tone becomes one of ‘discovery/revelation’ that persists until the end… at which point the tone graduates to ‘let’s get this over.’ The shifts are never quite abrupt, but are somewhat stark.Changing voice. “Snow Crash” never quite feels like it’s written by three different people, but the beginning, middle and end all feel radically different from one another. Some difference is to be expected as a story nearly 500 pages in the telling is unraveled… but there’s a difference between progression of events having a subtle impact on how the story is told and the feeling that the author is changing how they’re drafting the story in their own mind.Wandering plot. Why did Hiro need to go to Oregon to learn that thing about Raven? The Raft was cool, but did it need to occupy so much time or focus for the reader to grasp its significance or otherwise appreciate the information Stephenson was offering? There are a couple of other plot points that beg the question ‘why that’ or ‘why present it this way,’ but the goal is to remain as spoiler-free as possible, so those points will remain unmentioned. There is a fair amount of wandering/meandering in the storytelling that’s hit or miss; for every enjoyable moment of superfluous world building or character development, there is a head-scratching moment to offset it.The Good:The Deliverator (the first ~50 pages, really). Y.T. The ideas behind Babel, protolanguage and religion, in general.The Takeaway:Entertaining if a bit dated (as far as many of the technical predictions or conventions are concerned). “Snow Crash” was no doubt a hell of a read when it was released: immensely entertaining; rife with observations and commentary regarding the era in which it was written (much of which is still shockingly relevant); offering statements about how we got to where we are; great observations about people, their hopes, dreams and motivations.Recommended for: fans of cyberpunk; those interested in a topical examination of neurolinguistics; people looking for a wild, trippy ride that will trigger some fierce 90s nostalgia. Anyone that enjoyed “Neuromancer” or “Lexicon” may want to give “Snow Crash” a shot.“It was, of course, nothing more than sexism, the especially virulent type espoused by male techies who sincerely believe that they are too smart to be sexists.”“Software development, like professional sports, has a way of making thirty-year old men feel decrepit.”“To condense fact from the vapor of nuance.”“The Deliverator lets out an involuntary roar and puts the hammer down. His emotions tell him to go back and kill that manager, get his swords out of the trunk, dive in through the little sliding window like a ninja, track him down through the moiling chaos of the microwaved franchise and confront him in a climactic thick-crust apocalypse. But he thinks the same thing when someone cuts him off on the freeway, and he’s never done it-yet.”“They do a lot of talking about Jesus, but like many self-described Christian churches, it has nothing to do with Christianity except that they use his name. It’s a postrational religion.”

How many books have you read where the Hero/Protagonist's name is Hiro Protagonist? If you think that means the book is just a satire and the characters are one-dimensional, you couldn't be more wrong. Set in a not-too-unrecognizable dystopian future where conglomerates run entire neighborhoods like mini fifedoms, Hiro is a super hacker in the Matrix like world much of the population inhabits, as well as the real one. One of the best books I've read on a recommendation, and glad I did. Still holds up after multiple readings. Neal Stephenson at his absolute finest, you'll be hooked on his style as soon as you're finished with this one. Waiting for the movie adaptation still, seems like it's in development hell for a while. Until then, read the book - it's got humor, history, religion, anthropology, futurism, and a lot more for any reader willing to peek into Stephenson's world.

I haven't read anything of Stephenson's since Seveneves. Before that my only other exposure was with Anathem.With those two books as my previous experience I was a little hesitant to dive into one of Neal's massive tomes with endless paragraphs of info dump and esoteric scientific explanations.I was PLEASENTLY surprised to find none of that. Yes, there are large chunks of Stephenson's verbose prose. But while action packed and with an amazing world that only Stephenson can build this was still "light" compared to those novels.A semi-dystopian future where the US is chopped into different enclaves and the mafia are the good guys this story blends real world action with VR/Matrix/Ready Player One simulated drama.

I just read this again for the second time after having read it first about a year ago.First off....someone needs to make this into a series.Please.It's a great story and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the cyberpunk type science fiction.The only complaint about this work will be that the author gets into a bit of a detailed description that some people might find slow, but he does it in little chunks, so it's doable.The action-adventure stuff is great and fast moving.The "coming-of-age" aspect is good, the dual hero aspect is really well done.The villains are terrible.The tech is great to read about.Highly recommend this.
