Snow Crash

3.5/4.0
This is 75% of a world-changing book.
It's funny, intriguing, intelligent, and filled with interesting people and an insane world. The Mafia operates a pizza delivery chain, and the main character delivers for them.
Eventually things get too complicated, and the story requires a massive info dump of exposition. We're introduced to a talking computer program who can explain what the hell is going on, and the book falls completely flat at that point with all the momentum wasted. Things manage to rev themselves up again for the finale, but the damage is done. No perfection for you, Mr. Stephenson.
