Neal Stephenson's new book, Quicksilver, is coming out this month. [September?] Can't wait, I loved Cryptonomicon. Wired has a short interview with him. Looks like it's going to be a trilogy, with new instalments coming every six months. Wow, that's ambitious. I wonder if he started writing one novel and it turned into three?

Amazon has it listed for September 11, 2003. And it clocks in at a whopping 944 pages. Woohoo!
