The Confusion by Neil Stephenson.

I haven't read this Stephenson book, what do you think of it?

It is good stuff but that book is part 2 of a trilogy, The Baroque Cycle. Start with Quicksilver.

But very very good. If you have read Cryponomicon, and how he writes about older era's... same thing but no jumping to the present and it takes place in the 1800's (? not sure on this, been a while).
But very good, quasi-historical, and geeky at the same time.

Reading ---> A Fire Upon the Deep by Vernor Vinge.

Just finished ---> Holy Fire by Bruce Sterling

Next up ---> Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco

 

[Syrch]

Currently reading ATOT.

 

[reverend boltron]

The Shroud of the Thwacker - Chris Elliott .. yes that's right, Cabin Boy. And the book is hilarious. I highly suggest you read it.

the Baroque cycle books didn't sound all that interesting to me.

Sword of Shannara Series - Terry Brooks

 

[kitkat22]

Sahara by Clive Cussler; One of my favorite books, we just finished reading it last night. Yeah, there are cheesy lines and the main character has more lives than a cat, but you have to love the action in the book.

I just started reading The Tommyknockers by Stephen King.

Fahrenheit 451 is a classic book. Enjoy!
