jelsas 's review for:
The Diamond Age: Or, a Young Lady's Illustrated Primer
by Neal Stephenson
The first half is terrific, paints a compelling picture of a future with perfected nanotechnology. The characters are mostly interesting, especially the heroine Nell. But it gets too surreal in the second half, focusing too much on what's "beyond" the nanotech reality. It could have been great, but just wasn't.
