A review by suttonaw
Quicksilver by Neal Stephenson

4.0

I finally concluded that the Baroque Cycle is really interesting and worth reading. I recommend reading "Cryptonomicon" first, though. That's already nearly 900 pages long, and the B.C. is more like 2,700. There's a lot of interesting and worthwhile stuff here, but it starts to feel like maybe he shouldn't have given his editor so much time off.
