I'm not far into the book yet, but I have two thoughts on it. The Neighborhoods look like a different approach to the pocket governments Neil Stephenson has in Snow Crash.

Also, I find the style of the book reminds me a lot of Phillip Dick's work.

If the quality of the writing is this good the whole way through, I'm going to be very happy.
