Neal Stephenson is a blazing new force on the sci-fi scene. With the groundbreaking cyberpunk novel Snow Crash, he has "vaulted onto the literary stage." It weaves virtual reality, Sumerian myth, and just about everything in between with a cool, hip cybersensibility - in short, it is the gigathriller of the information age.

A Fire Upon the Deep is the big, breakout book that fulfills the promise of Vinge's career to date: a gripping tale of galactic war told on a cosmic scale. Thousands of years hence, many races inhabit a universe where a mind's potential is determined by its location in space, from superintelligent entities in the Transcend, to the limited minds of the Unthinking Depths, where only simple creatures and technology can function.

In 1942, Lawrence Pritchard Waterhouse - mathematical genius and young Captain in the US Navy - is assigned to detachment 2702. It is an outfit so secret that only a handful of people know it exists, and some of those people have names like Churchill and Roosevelt. The mission of Watrehouse and Detachment 2702 - commanded by Marine Raider Bobby Shaftoe - is to keep the Nazis ignorant of the fact that Allied Intelligence has cracked the enemy's fabled Enigma code. In the present, Waterhouse's crypto-hacker grandson, Randy, is attempting to create a "data haven" in Southeast Asia....

Interesting but weird end
Just like all of Neal’s books, he builds these elaborate set ups that somehow culminate into a collision of multiple different characters meeting up into an epic action movie sequence. The premise was definitely a slow build up for what I thought was a crazy turn of events. Totally recommend it if you can get through some otherwise slow plots.

Great book - bad recording with audio glitches
I'm 14h through the book right now. The book is great - typical Neal : separate stories converging in a masterful way.
However, at around the 13h mark, the audio becomes really hit or miss. Every couple of minutes, you get some weird corruption / compression artifact. I've deleted the content and redownloaded, Switched to high quality, to no avail.
I've just reached out to Audible to hopefully fix that or get a refund because now I'm missing critical plot points every 3-4 minutes.

And "Fiona" was the code name used by the developers of the first Kindle. Epic.
