À propos de cet audio
In reality, Hiro Protagonist delivers pizza for Uncle Enzo's CosaNostra Pizza Inc., but in the Metaverse he's a warrior prince. Plunging headlong into the enigma of a new computer virus that's striking down hackers everywhere, he races along the neon-lit streets on a search-and-destroy mission for the shadowy virtual villain threatening to bring about Infocalypse. Snow Crash is a mind-altering romp through a future America so bizarre, so outrageous...you'll recognize it immediately.

In the 25th century, humankind has spread throughout the galaxy, monitored by the watchful eye of the U.N. While divisions in race, religion, and class still exist, advances in technology have redefined life itself. Now, assuming one can afford the expensive procedure, a person's consciousness can be stored in a cortical stack at the base of the brain and easily downloaded into a new body (or "sleeve") making death nothing more than a minor blip on a screen.

In a scrap heap within an abandoned factory, the greatest invention in history lies dormant and unused. By what fatal error of judgment has its value gone unrecognized, its brilliant inventor punished rather than rewarded for his efforts? In defense of those greatest of human qualities that have made civilization possible, one man sets out to show what would happen to the world if all the heroes of innovation and industry went on strike.

Thomas Ligotti’s debut collection, Songs of a Dead Dreamer, and his second, Grimscribe, permanently inscribed a new name in the pantheon of horror fiction. Influenced by the strange terrors of Lovecraft and Poe and by the brutal absurdity of Kafka, Ligotti eschews cheap, gory thrills for his own brand of horror, which shocks at the deepest, existential, levels.

Stranger in a Strange Land is the epic saga of an earthling, Valentine Michael Smith, born and educated on Mars, who arrives on our planet with “psi” powers—telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, telekinesis, teleportation, pyrolysis, and the ability to take control of the minds of others—and complete innocence regarding the mores of man. After his tutelage under a surrogate father figure, Valentine begins his transformation into a kind of messiah.

Fun For A While
February 2022 | 4/5
This is a soft 4 - the world building is awesome, but the ending is a hot mess. It's a shame, because I was loving my time with Hero Protagonist, and Y T, and even Raven.
There's plenty of satire and sword fighting - it's obvious why the book is adored by so many.
I've read several Stephenson novels, and they all feel the same - I have fun, and there's memorable chunks, but they are not my favourites, and I don't really recommend them to others.
Props to Neal for the metaverse, avatars, and encrypted electronic currencies.
If you enjoy The Matrix, Hackers, and MMORPG's, you've likely read Snow Crash, but if you haven't, check it out!!

The first book I read from Stephenson and the first I've heard, too.
The narrator does the story justice.
Absolutely recommended for everyone who loves Gibson.

Skip irrelevant parts and it's good
Premise is ok, villain gets a hold of a mental virus that can allow him to take over and hero protagonist works to save the day. If you skip the irrelevant history lessons, 15 minutes of toilet paper and similar, was a good listen.

Only drawback is the varying sound quality, it will swap between high, low, and medium abruptly throughout most chapters.

One of the books that got me into Audiobooks
This book is an example of what makes Neal Stephenson great.
I like the setting and world this takes place in, it's jaded & harsh but also grounded in its own fictional way.
There are some truly badass characters in this book. Hero, YT and Raven are just too cool to ignore.
Just listen to Reason & enjoy the aftermath!

Good story, interesting speculation on society
Ostensibly a story about a skateboarder, pizza delivery man, religious nuts and ancient Sumerians. If you liked Reamde you will like this. The story is set in a world where governments don't really exist and small state-enclaves are franchises of major corporations and the Mafia. Part of it takes place in the real world and part of it in cyberspace.
The characters, at least the main ones, are fairly well fleshed out. The technology is interesting as is the speculation on the development of human society. Some of it is amusingly retro as things like the library of congress would have been replaced these days with Google and smartphones would have made all the jacking into consoles obsolete.
The story is fast paced, and interesting. I enjoyed it. One complaint was the sound. It was inteligible and clear all the way through but sounded tinny on every device I tried. I compensated by cranking the bass on all devices. Without that I would have given it 5 stars.
