Question

(Anonymous) 2018-04-26 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Can someone explain to me how Ready Player One isn't just a worse version of Snow Crash?

I'll hang up and take my answer off the air, thanks.

It's really good.

All I remember about it is the Sumerian meme brain hacking, the floating garbage islands, and the fuel-cell powered (rail? Idk) gun, although I might be conflating some of Stephenson’s other stuff. And it’s about a pizza delivery guy. But I definitely remember more about it than Ready Player One, which I read way more recently and remember almost nothing about.

No, all of that is in Snow Crash

except the islands aren't garbage, it's a flotilla of crappy ships lashed around a defunct aircraft carrier
