Sweet i bought uprooted and havent read it yet

Crytonomicon is my favourite book of all time. Read it 4 times. It's epic and everyone should enjoy it

Well, I tried to read Cryptonomicon three times. Twice in translation, and then in English (in case the translation was to blame). Did not make it past page 100… So, those who enjoy such books: enjoy it twice for me! ;-)

Just want to remind people that in November, we will also be reading the last book of the Dragonriders of Pern trilogy, The White Dragon by Anne McCaffrey.

I am going to change my vote because I have already read Uprooted, and I am like Joanna, having tried and failed to read Cryptonomicon at least twice. So, since it is obvious Inferno will never win, I will choose Ilium

Hey, Kim Gauthier. I believe that inferno will never win since I have nominated it at least three times and it never comes close. Do you want to read it with me sometime? I see that you are the only other person who voted for it.

I'm from the camp, who read and liked Cryptonomicon, but I'm a Neal Stephenson's fan

I would like to try Neal Stephenson, but I already own Anathem, Seveneves, and Reamde so I don't want to start with one I don't yet have. Would happily vote up Anathem, I think the group has read Seveneves already (or is it the other way around?).

He is one of love/hate authors, so yes, definitely try before getting more by him

I have read Uprooted and Cryptonomicon and enjoyed them, but don’t want reread them at the moment. I want to try Hyperion by Simmons before his other sf. So my vote remains with All Flesh is Grass. I also really liked Mechanique when I read it a number of years ago. It’s been decades since I read Inferno and I don’t remember it well, but I’m not much interested in reading it again. I know nothing about The Speed of Dark.

I haven't read The Speed of Dark, but I enjoyed a lot reading Remnant Population by the same author. However, it seems Uprooted will win and I'll gladly re-read it

The Speed of Dark is excellent. I don't usually remember books, but I remember that one
