Review title: A scifi Master in the Making
Product review: Diamond Age qualifies as one of the best new sci-fi books I have read in the past ten years. In many ways, though the style is quite different, it reminds me of Hyperion. The reason is that both books go back to the basics of what makes great sci-fi. Both explore the impact of singular inovations on society. In the case of Diamond Age, it is nanotech.Stephenson asks a profound question. How would society structure itself if it eliminated want? What if there was no more shortage and social structure needed a basis other than division of scarce resources? Stephenson answers this question brilliantly, all the while rapping it in an engrossing story with interesting characters. The book never gets lost in its technology, but instead is firmly rooted in a gripping story that pulls the reader in.In short, this is a wonderful book that I could not put down and is a must for serious sci fi fans. I am certain you will enjoy it immensely.
