This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I've tried a few times to get into Diamond Age, and every time i lose interest within the first 50 pages. Is it worth another try?
The only Stephenson book I managed to "finish" was the first two thirds of Seveneves, totally lost interest in the last third of the book too.
It gets better, but I’ve never gone back and reread it. The ending, IIRC is goofy too.
Honestly, I love his writing, but the books of his I’ve finished are Cryptonomicon, Snow Crash, Diamond Age, Zodiac, and ReamDe. The others I’ve either struggled to get into (Seveneves because the first chapter is so damn down) or just never started.
Honestly, ReamDe and Cryptonomicon are IMHO his most readable, maybe because they’re sent in the current time. Though I loved Snow Crash.
