Un libro a detalle

Una historia postapocalíptica que comienza algo lento pero se intensifica y desarrolla de forma entretenida. Es uno de esos libros que me he anotado para volver a leer si tengo la fortuna de contar con más tiempo libre en mi vejez. La cantidad de detalles técnicos y científicos lo hacen un poco árido para quien vive de prisa, pero al mismo tiempo interesante si se aprecia el cuidado y la investigación invertidos. Puede notar muchas ideas que fueron escritas primero en este libro y luego puestas en pantalla como parte de otras historias.

Too many us conservatives clichés

I pretty much agree with Jenne: awesome idea, development and pace of the novel until the third part. Then a sudden roll back to the very disappointing Stephenson of Reamde: so many possible threads to explore and he chooses the good western hero vs the bad soviets cliché... in 2015?
Still it's probably the best Stephenson book since the Baroque cycle, hooray.
