Negative Positive
Title: very disappoointed
Review: I've been a huge fan of Stephenson since I read "Snow Crash", and I really enjoyed both Cryptonomicon and Quicksilver.I'm not sure what went wrong, but "The Confusion" left me cold. The story lines and minor characters somehow were not as engaging.By the time I was half-way through the book, it was a chore. This is a book that I finished only because I had started.I don't believe that I'll bother with "The System of the World." Half-cocked Jack will have to muddle through without me.
