"This Snow Crash thing--is it a virus, a drug, or a religion?"
Juanita shrugs. "What's the difference?" The only relief from the
sea of logos is within the well-guarded borders of the Burbclaves.
Is it any wonder that most sane folks have forsaken the real world
and chosen to live in the computer-generated universe of virtual
reality? In a major city, the size of a dozen Manhattans, is a
domain of pleasures limited only by the imagination. But now a
strange new computer virus called Snow Crash is striking down
hackers everywhere, leaving an unlikely young pizza delivery man as
humankind's last best hope. The perfect cyberpunk sci-fi read, Snow
Crash is an equally worthy successor to William Gibson's
Neuromancer and predecessor to Ernest Cline's Ready Player One. ***
What readers are saying about Snow Crash: 'It's hard to believe
Neal wrote his books when the published date claims. He's always so
right about the future, and I keep on hoping he's so wrong'
Goodreads Reader Review 'Snow Crash is to Books as The Matrix is to
movies (with only the absolute BEST parts of Tron and Da Vinci Code
thrown in)' Goodreads Reader Review 'Loved it! Can't recommend it
highly enough. Everyone should read this book. Go do it. Do it now.
It's just awesome. You won't regret it' Goodreads Reader Review
'It's hilarious and mind-blowing. From the first page to the last,
I was amazed at just how much influence this book has had on TV,
movies, etc.' Goodreads Reader Review
