Correct on the author Imran!
I am reading REAMDE, which is so far proving to be an excellent 
thriller, but with 200 pages left to go out of 1000 or so there is time 
for it to crash and burn, so I will reserve judgement on it until I have 
finished it.
I loved Cryptonomicon, and also quite enjoyed the related Baroque Cycle, 
despite it being quite a slog in places.
