The Sparrow? yes for sure. great idea successfuly completed
Cryptonomicon?
My favorite sci fi book of the past 5 years. Really cool stuff about cryptography past and future, neat history, etc. Begins his use of real historical figures in wild fictional stories. The beginning of his use of this technique that is full blown in Quicksilver.
So how was Quicksilver? Oh, and while I've got your attention, did you read Bear's Vitals? I'm guessing you may have disliked it as much as you did Darwin's Radio.
