My only objection to reading this wonderful novel was the number of military type memos, but they did fill in some information. I loved this storyline and characters and the juxtaposition of fantasy with historical fiction. And naked Vikings, how could it get better? And there will be a sequel…

History comes alive in the background of all Mr. Stephenson’s work.

A fun read. I enjoyed it tremendously. I’m not sure I can say more without spoiling the fun.

I really liked the premise of this story, but the second half is hard to read. Page after page of faux bureaucratic bickering is not interesting and stops the story in its tracks. Could have been trimmed by two hundred pages and would have been fantastic.

The synergy between the co-authors evolved nicely as the the story became massive. I like a story that lasts, unlike the shorter reads that feel like episodes in a netflix series.

I hate when a book has no real ending. I thought the book still had like 80 pages to go, and it just ended. The rest of it was an excerpt from something else. Was a good read, but a real letdown at the end. Almost reminds me of a movie ending that makes no sense. “And I will continue the fight……”

Twists and turns through time, not sure who to trust, life and death struggles mixed with hilarious moments that made me laugh at loud. Excellent read!

Really enjoyed "DODO." Wasn't sure my attention span and comprehension were up to a novel of this length. Fortunately, no problem! Any more in the works, guys?

A little irrelevant but hey, this is Neal...

I was pretty excited for a new Stephenson book, but jeez what a rip off. That's like first edition hard cover price for an ebook. I'll pass until the publisher loses interest in charging this asinine price.
