Helpful Score: 1
Very enjoyable, and pretty close to a page-turner. Typically Stephenson in style, with loads of detail and interesting subplots.
The problem is that there are so many side plots raised during the course of this very long book, that many of them are completely unresolved. You are left at the end with so many questions that it's rather unsatisfying. And it's not that they are completely peripheral, because the author belabors some of those unresolved points at great length.
I liked the book, and I'm glad I read it, but it could have been much better edited.
