Yes, this book is *excellent*. I enclose my favorite quote from the book.


"Reason is still up top, its monitor screen radiating
blue static toward heaven. Hiro finds the hard power
switch and turns it off. Computers this powerful are
supposed to shut themselves down, after you've asked
them to. Turning one off with the hard switch is like
lulling someone to sleep by severing their spinal column."
- 'Snow Crash' by Neal Stephenson.
