In reality, Hiro Protagonist delivers pizza for Uncle Enzo’s CosaNostra Pizza Inc., but in the Metaverse he’s a warrior prince. Plunging headlong into the enigma of a new computer virus that’s striking down hackers everywhere, he races along the neon-lit streets on a search-and-destroy mission for the shadowy virtual villain threatening to bring about infocalypse. Snow Crash is a mind-altering romp through a future America so bizarre, so outrageous… you’ll recognize it immediately.

A re-read of an old favourite

Revisiting an old favourite, mostly because the teenager in the house had it recommended to them. As good as always, but now seeming oddly dated at times. Ex-vietnam characters' ages place it in the early 2000s, but that now puts it 20 years ago
