Snow Crash

12.99

“This Snow Crash thing–is it a virus, a drug, or a religion?”
Juanita shrugs. “What’s the difference?”

The only relief from the sea of logos is within the well-guarded borders of the Burbclaves. Is it any wonder that most sane folks have forsaken the real world and chosen to live in the computer-generated universe of virtual reality?

In a major city, the size of a dozen Manhattans, is a domain of pleasures limited only by the imagination. But now a strange new computer virus called Snow Crash is striking down hackers everywhere, leaving an unlikely young pizza delivery man as humankind’s last best hope.

The perfect cyberpunk sci-fi read, Snow Crash is an equally worthy successor to William Gibson’s Neuromancer and predecessor to Ernest Cline’s Ready Player One.
