Historia
Neal Stephenson is a blazing new force on the sci-fi scene. With the groundbreaking cyberpunk novel Snow Crash, he has "vaulted onto the literary stage." It weaves virtual reality, Sumerian myth, and just about everything in between with a cool, hip cybersensibility - in short, it is the gigathriller of the information age.

It was alright

Not a bad story, although I don't love the ending. My biggest problem with the book is that it wastes a lot of time with anecdotal things without getting to its point. My biggest problem with the audiobook are the very frequent and annoying transitions between the chapters.

Historia
In the brief, golden years of the Edwardian era, the McCosh sisters - Christabel, Ottilie, Rosie, and Sophie - grow up in an idyllic household in the countryside south of London. On one side their neighbors are the proper Pendennis family, recently arrived from Baltimore. On the other side is the Pitt family. In childhood this band is inseparable, but the days of careless camaraderie are brought to an abrupt halt by the outbreak of The Great War, in which everyone will play a part.

Not sure what the point was.
Revisado: 12-21-15
This novel presents a fascinating detailed account of The Great War via an English family, full of detailed airplane maneuvers, local and period slang, and large passages entirely in French. However, somewhere around the middle of the book, after the war has winded down and ended, it is unclear what the point of this novel is. It rambles on for several more hours and seems to end rather abruptly (albeit predictably). It's not that anything in this novel was bad, it's just I'm not sure it benefitted by having the bulk of the material present.
