Daunting, but having passed through this particular gauntlet, I believe it is worth it. Perhaps I was lucky in have an e-book, as I never experienced how much the book weighed. I am slowly making my way through The Baroque Cycle, and realize I should probably reread Cryptonomicon.

I'm just digging how Stephenson can still be writing cyberpunk when he's setting his books in the 17th Century. YMMV, but I think it's totally fucking COOL.
