Book Reviews of Cryptonomicon

Book Review: The Cassette of this excellent book is unabridged excerpts
Summary: 4 Stars

I recently bought the audio cassette of this book and was disappointed to find that important parts of the book are summarised. This is particularly sad since both the book and the narrator are excellent and I would have given 5 stars except for the summary problem. I had to listen to the cassettes immediately again to pick up on parts of the story which had been summarised earlier and which later led to some strange inconsistencies in my understanding of the development of the relationships betwen characters. However, the second listening only added to my enjoyment and I would still recommend the tapes as long as you are aware they are unabridged excerpts. I would guess about 80% of the book is read by the narrator and 20% summarised but since I haven't read the book itself this must be a guesstimate only.
