Great idea!! I’m currently re-reading #TheBaroqueCycle by #NealStephenson and so am embroiled in the Newton vs Leibniz feud. Can really recommend this. 😉🤷🏻♂️👏
Wonder if/how much AI was involved in the production of #NealStephenson’s #Polostan? Uncomfortable lumbering through over-researched historical detail. Deft glories of #Cryptonomicon and #TheBaroqueCycle largely absent.
@nealstephenson.bsky.social All recently recorded books are very worth buying on #audible. After #TheBaroqueCycle, I dove into #TerminationShock. Having never read #Cryptonomicon, dove in. Baroque Easter eggs is all I'll say!
I am curious if you have a take on #TheBaroqueCycle by #NealStephenson.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bar...
"Characters include Sir Isaac Newton, Gottfried Leibniz, Nicolas Fatio de Duillier, William of Orange, Louis XIV of France, Oliver Cromwell, Peter the Great, John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlbo"
My @nealstephenson.bsky.social collection keeps growing! Got myself a copy of Cryptonomicon in Edinburgh yesterday 📚 👀 Still have to finish The Confusion & The System of the World though 😁

It took me years but I finally finished #TheBaroqueCycle and I think it might wind up being Stephenson’s masterpiece:
