Snow Crash

As I continue to read Snow Crash it gets more and more intersting, and I anticpate what is to come. Now that the drug Snow Crash has come into play and Raven the book is complicated. Some parts of the book is confusing at parts, pt overall I understand it. It has many references to religion and the Bible, which I found interesting. I liked the fact that Stephenson brings history and actual information into the book and work it in, because it seems to be more real. The characters in the book make it interesting as well. At this point I just finished chapter 32 in the book when Y.T. gets the sample of Snow Crash. This is a very important part of the book because it lets them have the access to examine the virus and determine ways to come up with a possible anti-virus., which could end up helping Da5id. The fact that Da5id is in the hospital from the drug Snow Crash is weird because he got it through the Metraverse. Overall, I am halfway through the book and the climax is coming soon with everthing coming together. I am excited to see what happens with the rest of the book.

Snow Crash

Before I started reading this book I knew I was going to like it from the small summary on the back of the book. It is a very interesting book of a futuristic world where technology seems almost boundless. I like the concept of the Metraverse where people just sign into it and can see and talk to people. It's AIM on a whole new and advanced level. The only problem with somthing like this program is that it could consume a person's life and when it comes down to it, it is only virtual reality and not real life. I like the concept of the book so far and I currently just finished chapter 15 where Hiro meet Raven who gave Da5id Snow Crash. I look foward to reading and finishing the book.
