Yet There Are Statues. Anathem by Neal Stephenson. February 23, 2009 at 12:46 am Posted in 4 stars. When I first heard a new Neal Stephenson book was coming out, I wasn’t too interested. When I heard it was a space opera, I started paying more attention. I’m one of those people who enjoyed Stephenson’s work up to, but not including, the. I only made it through. The good news is that.

Reviews by Rating | Yet There Are Statues
https://matthilliard.wordpress.com/reviews-by-rating
Yet There Are Statues. The basic rubric I use is that four star books are good and recommended, three star books are recommended only with large qualifications, two star books are actively disliked, and one star books I outright hate (thankfully this is rare). Five star books are particularly good books that also resonate with my particular interests. Your mileage will vary. Book of the Long Sun. Book of the New Sun. Book of the Short Sun. Fifth Head of Cerberus. By Iain M Banks. The Manual of Detection.

Yet There Are Statues. REAMDE by Neal Stephenson. August 23, 2012 at 2:42 am Posted in 2 stars. Since the publication of Cryptonomicon. In 1999, people have been having a hard time putting Neal Stephenson in a box. It was his science fiction that first catapulted him to prominence with first Snow Crash. And then the Hugo award-winning Diamond Age. Cryptonomicon. Felt similar somehow to Snow Crash. To the solidly science fictional Anathem. But his latest book, REAMDE. 8216;s genre, whatever that was.

Yet There Are Statues. Passage at Arms by Glen Cook. August 3, 2015 at 12:13 am Posted in 4 stars. As I write this, Glen Cook’s Wikipedia article consists of two paragraphs about his life and one paragraph about the. The Dragon Never Sleeps. Which is just short of a masterpiece.
