ugh. Reamde.
Reamde starts off with a lot of interesting ideas, and then morphs into quite possibly the worst watered-down, airport-paperback, fourth-rate-Tom-Clancy-triller nonsense I have ever read. Avoid it at all costs. Unbelievable plot and character motives. ick.
- devindotcom 12y agoSeconded. It's really awful. Read Snow Crash, Cryptonomicon, and Anathem.
- Florin_Andrei 12y agoThe Russians were fun, if a bit cartoonish.
- RandallBrown 12y agoI really liked Reamde. It's a close second to Anathem as far as Neal Stephenson's books go for me. If you can suspend disbelief at the sheer ridiculousness of the situation, it's pretty awesome.
