Snow Crash HUD e-book available for purchase

Posted on October 3, 2006 by

Last month I mentioned that Penguin Publishers UK was releasing an in-world version of the classic cyber-punk novel Snow Crash (1994) by Neal Stephenson.  I finally got a hold of the sampler HUD (heads up display) from the Rivers Run Red HQ in Avalon (225, 55, 37).  The HUD is definitely a lot easier to deal with than the last in-world book I purchased. Very easy on the eyes, particularly in the "large text" mode.  There appears to be an audio version of the book, but it didn’t work when I tried it on my Macbook Pro.

Not as satisfying as skateboarding around the burbclaves on your smartwheels, but still pretty cool.
