Snow Crash.

by Neal Stephenson

This one revs its story-engine hard in the first paragraph, but by the third page it's already veered off into burbclaves and the future of American higher education. The CosaNostra Pizza University may sound laughable, but those who enter its hallowed halls do come out able to write a sentence in English. I love the irreverent inventiveness of it: things like the Raft or the idea of a 'tongue of Eden'. While Stephenson did equally interesting near-future-smithing in Diamond Age, here he has characters that I followed with much more interest.
