| A huge palette of ancient and current religion, neuro-linguistics, business through mega-corps, church and personal relationships, and city-states the a few city blocks in size, all painted on a VR world .... amazing! TL;DR - your preferred news feed is a virus. | ||||

| Good cyber-punk novel. Easy to read and action packed. The mystical angle doesn't quite work on a scientific angle but is interesting and the idea of "me" which is similar to Dawkin's memes are an interesting angle. Great characters and realistic future of economic decay, government collapse and the growth of the franchise corporate society. | ||||

| While reading this book during my 2016 vacation, I had to check the date of the first publication several times. I was astonished at some of the things described in the book, for they are today realities and not sci-fi anymore. The author reminded me then of Julius Verne, another great visionary. Did Neal Stephenson invented the word "avatar" in this book? Was he the first to dream about a virtual world in which people would socialise via their internet connectivity? That's the most fascinating thing about this book. The story hooks you quickly and contains the needed elements of a very good sci-fi thriller: future tech together with ancient myths, main characters that are almost super-human in their own particular field of expertise and a world that has few chances to succeed. I enjoyed the plot although at some point the whole story felt a bit stretched, with some elements being forced-in rather than naturally developed from the story. Nevertheless, a good book for switching off, by switching on to the "metaverse". | ||||

| Brilliant, funny, original, exciting, and thought-provoking. A vividly described not-so-future world, with characters you'll love and ideas you definitely won't see anywhere else. | ||||

| A book like this is hard to rate. It is seminal to the cyber punk genre, so any slight of its cliches or stereotypes may just be a backwards-looking judgment. However, the book has a very misguided sense of plot. While there are great ideas and entertaining moments in the book, the tendons that hold the story together are kinda flimsy. The story exists to get the characters from one cool moment to another. Speaking of, this book lives and dies on the "Rule of Cool". Neo-punk skateboards out of the FBI headquarters while telling them to suck it? Check. Motorcycle race-battle in cyberpsace? Check. Protagonist hero literally named "Hiro Protagonist", who is also one of the architects of cyberspace and one of the best swordsmen of all time, check. You roll your eyes at the silliness of it all, and yet there's a kernel of intellectual thought at the core of the story. That core orbits around the idea of language and the power it has to actually gestate ideas within people. The book takes the idea to the literal extreme, positing a universal language that actually can program people like a virus. Take that for what you want. But, the concepts underneath the silly drive to make everything/everyone "cool as hell " are intriguing. However, the ending is a massive letdown. I had to check my book twice to make sure I wasn't missing pages, since it just kinda...ends. No closure and no real pay-off for the concepts of the novel or the characters that he built. However, I quickly got over it since the characters existed as either conduits of plot or puppets to be cool. | ||||

| “Snow Crash” is a great science fiction cyberpunkish novel. Brilliant, exhilarating, very funny, highly intelligent, very well informed, and at the same time highly pessimistic about the future. It imagines a very bleak future in which the United States federal government has been reduced to a few fortified areas, there is no rule of law, most of the country is dominated by a small number of criminal corporations, one of the most powerful ones being the Mafia. This picture of the future is not completely consistent, but overall the novel is excellent. The main characters are a 30 year-old man, who is apparently the best samurai swordsman in the world, one of the best hackers or software programmers (Stephenson uses the words more or less interchangeably; one must keep in mind that this book was written in 1992), and also a Deliverator, which is a fancy name for a pizza delivery man working for the Mafia, and a 15 year-old girl (very full of “attitude”) that works as a “Kourier” (messengers that deliver packages riding some super high-tech skates). The Mafia apparently controls all the Domino-like pizza-to-go business in the country. The whole setup of the novel should make smile even to the most cantankerous readers. | ||||

| This many years later, this novel appears to have been a peak into today's 'future'. A great mind expanding read. | ||||

| Just okay. Nice job of world building, but I didn't find the characters that compelling. The story was somewhat confusing and ended abruptly. I read this after thoroughly enjoying Ready Player One and learning that the author cited this work as an inspiration. I liked that book much better than this one. | ||||

| This book left me wanting. The setting and the concepts are interesting, but the author just doesn't tie anything together. I was utterly confused when the book ended. | ||||

| I purchased the audiobook version. The premise of this novel is interesting, and Mr. Stephenson has definitely created a vivid and interesting dystopia, that I would love to spend more time exploring. If anything, I thought there ended up being a few too many things going on that were never fully understood. I think we could have either lost a few plot angles or added about an extra few chapters as some of the story lines felt unresolved. All in all, a good listen on the way to work. | ||||

| One of the best books I have ever read, my only regret is that it's supposedly the best in the genre so it's only downhill from here as far as cyberpunk fiction goes! | ||||

| I have loved this book since a friend recommended it in high school. Be prepared for a pretty heavy information dump right in the middle, but the plot and characters are outstanding, and it's one of my top 5 desert island all-time favorite books. Had to get a new copy because a jerk in college drenched it and didn't replace it. | ||||

| How many books have you read where the Hero/Protagonist's name is Hiro Protagonist? If you think that means the book is just a satire and the characters are one-dimensional, you couldn't be more wrong. Set in a not-too-unrecognizable dystopian future where conglomerates run entire neighborhoods like mini fifedoms, Hiro is a super hacker in the Matrix like world much of the population inhabits, as well as the real one. One of the best books I've read on a recommendation, and glad I did. Still holds up after multiple readings. Neal Stephenson at his absolute finest, you'll be hooked on his style as soon as you're finished with this one. Waiting for the movie adaptation still, seems like it's in development hell for a while. Until then, read the book - it's got humor, history, religion, anthropology, futurism, and a lot more for any reader willing to peek into Stephenson's world. | ||||

| I love Neal's depth of imagination, the way he finds connections between ideas that are seemingly worlds apart. Another great read:) | ||||
