I think it laid a lot of groundwork for books that came later. But as you said, not every book is for everybody.

This was the first book of him I read, but I will definitely check out his other works if they’re all like this!
I just finished Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson. Great book, that not only coined terms like “avatar” and “metaverse” (for better or worse), but is also really well written. It somehow manages to find a tone that is consistent for the dystopian worldbuilding, the silly and self-aware things that happen in the world, and the philosophical aspect dealing with culture, religion and free will. Highly recommend!
