As much as love the book the part wheremonths earlier he bought hacked passcodes for the evil corps computer system just incase he was ever in their building and needed to use them. Which of course as it turns out, he did.
Snowcrash was good once. Tried going through it again but couldn't.
Diamond Age was really good and I just finished Seveneves, which I REALLY want a tv show about the future he's set up.
Tried Reamde but really hated the first couple of chapters so I dropped it.
That's more of a deus ex machina situation than a plot hole.
And Readme was so disappointing. Never read Diamond Age. Cryptonomicon is still his best.
