A review by jmitschke
Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson
4.0
Looooooong but really good. Took me the first third to get into it but then I got totally sucked in to the complex combination of nerdy cryptography/spy/hacker shenanigans and intersecting family storylines between WWII and the 1990s. The last third was a total page turner.
I also enjoyed Stephenson’s sense of humor and his attention to detail in his characters.
Minor complaints: maybe just one female POV? I wanted to hear more of Amy Shaftoe’s in her own words.
