Über diesen Titel

“Stephenson has a once-in-a-generation gift: he makes complex ideas clear, and he makes them funny, heartbreaking, and thrilling.” - Time

The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Anathem, Neal Stephenson is continually rocking the literary world with his brazen and brilliant fictional creations - whether he’s reimagining the past (The Baroque Cycle), inventing the future (Snow Crash), or both (Cryptonomicon). With Reamde, this visionary author whose mind-stretching fiction has been enthusiastically compared to the work of Thomas Pynchon, Don DeLillo, Kurt Vonnegut, and David Foster Wallace - not to mention William Gibson and Michael Crichton - once again blazes new ground with a high-stakes thriller that will enthrall his loyal audience, science and science fiction, and espionage fiction fans equally. The breathtaking tale of a wealthy tech entrepreneur caught in the very real crossfire of his own online fantasy war game, Reamde is a new high - and a new world - for the remarkable Neal Stephenson.

Kritikerstimmen

“Stephenson...delivers a sprawling thriller that shows him in complete control of his story.” (Publishers Weekly)

“Noir futurist Stephenson returns to cyberia with this fast-moving though sprawling techno-thriller...Who’ll prevail? We don’t know till the very end, thanks to Stephenson’s knife-sharp skills as a storyteller. An intriguing yarn—most geeky, and full of satisfying mayhem.” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review)

“Sometimes when you’re reading Neal Stephenson, he doesn’t just seem like one of the best novelists writing in English right now; he seems like the

only one.” (Lev Grossman, Time)

Eines der wenigen Hörbüchern, bei denen man schneller hören möchte, um zur Auflösung zu gelangen, und andererseits das Ende lange herauszögern möchte, weil die Story und die Art des Lesers so toll ist.
Echtes Kopfkino, welches nur zu empfehlen ist!

Eines der besten Hörbücher überhaupt

The performance of the reader is excellent - he has all the different dialects and accents and brings the figures into live. The story is interesting but somewhat complicated - I had to listen to certain passages twice because locations and scenes change rapidly.

Thrilling novel but you have to like gunfights

Another fascinating read from Stephenson - Brings together a World of Warcraft clone, International Terrorists and other threads too numerous to mention. An engrossing book and well read. Can only recommend it to his fans - if you're not, then maybe get started!

Excellent

I really enjoyed the reading of Reamdy by Malcolm Hillgartner. A rollercoaster of a story. The story by Neal Stephenson is thriller set in a world where internet, mobile devices and gaming is as normal as cars and houses. This is true for most of us, but not in literature and movies where, strangely, computers, internet and even mobile phones are still a bit special however this seems to be changing. I have been a fan of Neals since Crypronomicon came out and have read up on his older work since. Crypronomicon remain my favorite by this author however this book is now on second place behind it. Preferring it to the Baroque Cycle despite the absence of Bobby Shaftoe, who remains my all time favorite character in literature. Reading some other reviews where people I notice people who write that the storyline contains unlikely events. Is Moby Dick likely? Well, I wonder, a thriller or a novel with likely events, that would be like, Booooring. A thriller is not about being likely events, it is about being exiting, eventful, characters who are larger than life, fast paced.
Malcolm Hillgartner has a great voice and is a fine interpreter of the story who does the accents of the characters in such a way that it almost feels like an radio drama. I more and more became to like audio books since they enable me to read a book in the car. I dislike radio and always enjoyed reading in the train, however, traveling by car each day does not allow me to read a printed book.
Too bad that Amazon puts the reviews of the Kindle, the Printed and the audio book edition all together, since especially the audio edition is really a different thing.

Neal Stephensons best book

Habe gerade festgestellt, dass ich bisher immer nur Rezensionen der grottigen Bücher auf Audible erstellt habe, und das sollte sich ändern...

Beim ersten Mal Lesen von REAMDE war ich einigermaßen enttäuscht. Warum? Was mich an den Neal Stephenson-Büchern bisher immer fasziniert hat, war zum einen das Aufgreifen eines oder mehrerer bestimmten Themas (Cyberspace und andere bei Snowcrash, Nanotechnologie bei Diamond Age, etc., bis hin zu Quantenphysik in Anathem) in Verbindung mit einer abgefahrenen Story und unglaublicher Detailtiefe. Muss man mögen, klar, aber als Fan
Im Vergleich dazu ist Reamde halt fast ein wenig gewöhnlich.

Nach dem Hören dann dennoch fünf Sterne, denn a) die Story ist trotzdem packend, b) der Schreibstil gefällt mir wie immer und c) ist es weit überdurchschnittlich für einen Actionthriller.

Aber für das nächste Buch darf es doch wieder ein wenig abgefahrener werden ;-).

P.S. Verstehe nicht warum, aber Anathem, eines der besten weil abgefahrensten Bücher von NS ist IMMER NOCH NICHT verfügbar auf Audible, leider.

Anders, aber immer noch sehr gut...

Called for a MMORPG virus, "Reamde" is a true page turner. Equally marvelous is the reader's performance. Highly enjoyable for everyone who wants to see how incredibly intertwined online gaming can become with the plot of a thriller.

Suspense at its finest

Wahrscheinlich ein gutes Hörbuch für
Waffennarren, MMORP Spielefans und Fans von Gewaltorgien im terroristischen Umfeld.
Technik - wie es der Titel suggeriert - Fehlanzeige!

Ich habe 10 Anläufe gebraucht, um es zu hören. Letztendlich verschwendete Zeit.

Nur für Freaks

I bought be book in expectation of a scifi thriller centering around an online fantasy multiplayer game (basically a mix between Word of Warcraft, Second Life and EVE Online?). However, that's not what you get. The whole online game component ist only a plot hook to basically a present day action/spy thriller. Even worse: the online game parts are actually the worst parts of the book. If you ever played an online multiplayer game, you are constantly confronted with descriptions of a game that absolutely would not be built that way and also would not work that way in a multiplayer setting.
Then, after about one fifth of the book, there is a plot twist, so random, unpredictable and severe that it twists the plot in a completely new direction. Just imagine, you bought Harry Potter, expecting a book about a wizarding school, just for Harry to be expelled after 50 pages and then the rest of the book describing Harry's regular high school live and him becomming involved in organized crime. Maybe not a bad story but not what you expected to get when you bought the book.

As a thriller, the book hase some really intense and captivating passages. However, Stephensons writing style is very often like every character plus the narrator were some kind of Sherlock Holmes. An insane amount of text is used to describe how characters are evaluating situations and predicting actions of other characters and then describing how those other characters are executing those actions. It's partially rather exhausting.

Lastly, I think that Stephenson does not do a good job in conveying danger. Minor characters are often introduced and killed of rather quickly. Some times, those scenes and characters would not have been necessary at all, leaving me wonder why the author felt the need of even including those scenes just to get the people killed. On the other hand, the "plot armor" of the main characters feel rather strong. This is also due to the reason of too often occuring and too random "deus ex machina" events, saving them from very bad situations. What is the point of Stephenson describing scenes, behaviors and trains of thought in meticoulus detail, just for the saving element too often be something completely unpredictable?

Thriller with a bad description
