A review by tomrrandall
Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson

4.0

Loved the WW2-era storyline and the cryptography. The first half of the "modern" storyline dragged for me, probably because the technology of the late 90s is no longer cutting-edge enough to be interesting but not antiquated enough to be interesting, either. The second half redeems it, though, and I can see why this was supposedly required reading for employees in the early days of Paypal.
