What a bunch of useless drivel. If I had to read books like this reading would be no fun. At first it is fun then it becomes monotonous. What a bore. Stephenson tries to impress us with his use of his own made up language. I could only take so much of his use of hihinkydinks, wambamabazoozas, clinkclankydanks and imjustfullofcrap. Once you get past the made up language that you may here a 3 year old use while playing with his imaginary friend, I found that there was not anything interesting about the story. A very simple tale cloaked and disguised as something complicated to make you feel like you are reading something intelligent or enlightening. The only thing amazing about this book is that I actually finished it.
