Anathem – Neil Stephenson
I preordered this from Amazon the minute I heard it was coming out. I could not wait for it to finally come out. When I finally did get my greasy little mits on it I devoured it. Then as soon as I finished it I flipped back to the first page and started reading it again. I would like to say that it was because the book was so much fun I had to read it again, but the truth is that I wasn’t satisfied. I felt like I was missing something and it must be my fault because this is Stephenson; the author of the The Baroque Cycle, Cryptinomicon, The Diamond Age, the one with Hiro Protaganist and the bike with a nuclear reactor in the side car whose title eludes me right now. On a second slower reading it was more satisfying but It just didn’t reach the heihts of his other work, but that’s a mighty high bar. I’m still looking forward to anything else he does with great anticipation.
