I enjoyed specific parts of this book - the WOW type computer game that allows for transfer of gold into cash, the Chinese hackers, even the run in with random terrorists. But, Stephenson dragged the story on for hundreds of pages. The ending just seemed anti cathartic and kind of expected. 3 stars for creativity.
