I had a long flight so I took along Reamde.

I'd read it twice before, but damned if it didn't hook me up again. I got to the first airport around 10 am and didn't get home until 3 am. Saved my sanity.

For the uninitiated, Reamde involves the kidnapped niece of a billionaire game maker; the game is really fun and also a money laundering operation. There are terrorists, Right Wing militias, undercover spies, demented science fiction authors, and a bear skin rug.
