4 of 5 stars
bookshelves: cyberpunk, fiction, read-2008, hugo-award, science-fiction
Read in September, 2008

This is a hard book to rate. I'll give it a four just based on how "cool" the book is. The world is awesome...one of the best I can think of...but it never really grabbed me. It was certainly interesting, but I had a hard time reading a lot in a sitting.

Roger It just ended, which bugged me. I need to read it again at some point.

Ben Stephenson takes a lot of flack for his endings. Cryptonomicon certainly ended strangely, too. I think he gets it right with Anathem, though.
