Anyone like Neal Stephenson?
« on: September 23, 2008, 03:34:28 PM »
I have a copy of his new book, Anathem, in hardcover, free to a good home.

In other news, I will catch up on my outstanding threads tonight.

I challenge you to send me a box of cool (nee weird) stuff!

I love Neal Stephenson... at least I loved Snow Crash and Diamond Age which are all
I've read of him because his big big big series was a little too daunting for me to start.

What address should I send your box of cool (nee weird) stuff to, Mike? Home or store? I can ship via the bookstore through UPS if that makes any difference.

I should have taken it as a hint that you were willing to give up the book so easily.

This is...  this is a weird read.
