A review by interphantom
Quicksilver by Neal Stephenson

4.0

Didn't enjoy it as much as his other books, but it was still a great book. They always take me so long to read because I'll come across a topic (example the 30 Years War) and then hop on Wikipedia to read about it. Which of course leads to other topics, and hours later I realize that I only got through a few sentences in the story. Ultimately I'm that much smarter for reading it, but makes it tough to get through. Plus I'm sure my wife could go without me constantly feeling the need to share all the tidbits I've learned.
