About “Snow Crash”
Within the Metaverse, Hiro is offered a datafile named Snow Crash by a man named Raven, who hints it is a form of narcotic. Hiro's friend Da5id views a bitmap image in the file, causing his computer to crash and Da5id to suffer brain damage in the real world. Hiro and YT then work with the mob to uncover a plot of biblical proportions. It is a 1992 novel by Neal Stephenson.
Praise for “Snow Crash”
“One of the most popular sci-fi books of all time . . . It stands as a foundational text of the cyberpunk movement.”
“Stephenson’s cult classic has become canon in Silicon Valley, where a host of engineers, entrepreneurs, futurists, and assorted computer geeks . . . still revere Snow Crash as a remarkably prescient vision of today’s tech landscape.”
“Hip, surreal, distressingly funny . . . Neal Stephenson is a crafty plotter and a wry writer.”
