gingerscripting 's review for:
The Rise and Fall of D.O.D.O.
by Nicole Galland, Neal Stephenson
This is probably my least favorite Neal Stephenson book so far. The book is written through diaries, letters, and internet posts. With another book, this would work but with this one I found it very disjointed. I finished the book without feeling connected to any of the characters. The ending was very disappointing as well.
Still, it is a Neal Stephenson book and there are things to like. The story is ambitious and fun. He loves the historical subject matter so much it comes through in the writing. I suddenly have the urge to research many events I never had an interest in before.
Overall, an okay book. I didn't love it but I didn't hate it either.
