I love the neurovirus idea in it. It starts out as libertarianism.jpg but that quickly becomes a weird mix of linguistics, neuroscience, and history. It’s one of those sci-fi books that I come back to every year or two because of how damn interesting it is.

I thought it was pretty good. The setting was fun and interesting but it also kinda felt like he was trying too hard to be over-the-top or unusual in some places, and I’m not a fan of action sequences in cyberspace where the author is constantly having to explain the rules as the sequence unfolds.

Worth reading, but I far prefer Anathem.

It’s good. I enjoyed it. It’s like the “post-Cyberpunk” Cyberpunk book, though. So if you haven’t read the grand-daddy of the genre (Neuromancer) you should probably do that before reading Snow Crash just to compare/contrast the genre.

I liked it. I haven’t read that PKD book but you’d probably find Snow Crash more engaging, considering the pace of his other writing i’ve read.
