A review by cassandra67b07
Termination Shock by Neal Stephenson
4.0
As usual with a Stephenson book, I finish with my head full of ideas-some of which I didn't know that I needed to know. The outcomes for Houston and New Orleans (both towns I have connections to) are predictable and also not? Feral pigs ok, but fire ants attacking the AC units? Nooooo....
As always, the ideas drive the book and the characters less so. Of them all, Red was the most compelling. I appreciate his quiet competence.
I wish I could believe that people could cooperate on any issue of global importance but I think here Stephenson is optimistic.
