He's written far better, both on the sci-fi side and otherwise.
imo, it goes Anathem > Cryptonomicon > The Diamond Age > Seveneves > Termination Shock > Snow Crash. The Baroque Cycle is historical fiction, but I didn't get into it. REAMDE is a techno-thriller, and a divisive one, where it lands depends on whether you enjoy that style.
- arethuza 3y ago"The Baroque Cycle is historical fiction" Apart from the suspiciously well informed immortal character and the magical gold? I wonder what could explain those...
- slothtrop 3y agoOk, pedant.
- ttepasse 3y ago> The Baroque Cycle is historical fiction ... written in a SciFi mindset, I would say.
