Publisher Description
“Stephenson has a once-in-a-generation gift: he makes complex ideas clear, and he makes them funny, heartbreaking, and thrilling.” - Time
The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Anathem, Neal Stephenson is continually rocking the literary world with his brazen and brilliant fictional creations - whether he’s reimagining the past (The Baroque Cycle), inventing the future (Snow Crash), or both (Cryptonomicon). With Reamde, this visionary author whose mind-stretching fiction has been enthusiastically compared to the work of Thomas Pynchon, Don DeLillo, Kurt Vonnegut, and David Foster Wallace - not to mention William Gibson and Michael Crichton - once again blazes new ground with a high-stakes thriller that will enthrall his loyal audience, science and science fiction, and espionage fiction fans equally. The breathtaking tale of a wealthy tech entrepreneur caught in the very real crossfire of his own online fantasy war game, Reamde is a new high - and a new world - for the remarkable Neal Stephenson.
Customer Reviews
Great book and interesting story.
This book was a great read, the only issue I have with it was that there was no easy way to know when you changed chapters of a scene change. The narrator just went from one section to another without any indication of a transition. Other than that this is a great book and I would recommend it.
iTunes does not care if you finish this book
I recently purchased this and want this review to in no way relate to the quality of the book or the reader. The audio book is missing its end. It has sections that are out of order and upon reaching out to Apple to try to get the end of my book I was informed they simply were not responsible for having sold me an incomplete product. Save yourself the trouble. Don't buy this from iTunes.
Bad product, not book.
Neal Stephenson never fails to deliver. But this audiobook, broken into five parts, was completely disjointed, jumping around the narrative, then, ultimately, stopping completely before the ending. That’s right, no end. No explanation. Will be seeking a refund.
