▲ 190 ▼ Just picked up Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson (piefed.cdn.blahaj.zone) submitted 6 months ago by Keshara@piefed.blahaj.zone to c/books@lemmy.world 62 comments fedilink hide all child comments Any recommendations on what to read after this one? I also have Piranesi Susanna Clarke on my backlog, but would like something in a similar technological fashion as Snow Crash

The series fizzles out a bit, but this one is great. permalink fedilink source parent [–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 1 point 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) Gibson’s books are really good, but they can also be a chore sometimes. He swaps in and out so many different characters I never really feel like I’m getting any continuity. The Peripheral is one of the better ones with some good characters, but IMO some of his other books don’t flow so well. permalink fedilink source parent
