And that bit in Snow Crash about Americans producing shit except for pizza, microcode and movies will eventually be true.

I guess he was right, because Snow Crash itself was absolute shit.

I'm going to go out on a limb and agree with laudable here. This is slightly more wrong than ICJ hating The Incredibles, which is insane and grounds for sterilization via one of those Minority Report retinal scanning tamagotchi snaking its way up your urethra, all firing off electrical shocks until it finds Tom Cruise.

Yah thanks. Because of people like you, I bought this book recently and wasted a week reading it because it was supposed to be "OMG TEH KEWL".

There is so much bad in this book, I wouldn't know where to begin. From the intro that reads like a mrs johnson cyberpunk fanfic, to the last of the three completely anti-climactic finales, where a fucking dog that was introduced in a flashback half a book earlier (who had no impact on the plot and existed for no other reason than the finale) launches himself Gurgi-esque into the villians private jet.

Perhaps it was the hawt hawt sex between a 14 year-old girl (who can't seem to keep her clothes on for more than 5 minutes) and a 50 year-old eskimo (who surf (SURFS!) in his kayak, and kills people in bodyarmor with bamboo or glass) that you enjoyed so much? Or maybe the LOL government memo about toiletpaper pools?

Just the fact the Hiro Protaganist (LOL AGAIN!) walks around with a katana and drives the superest badass motorcycle ever should automatically invalidate this book forever.
